I am re-gearing mine to 4.88, much better for both on and offroad. Remember Jeep put 4.10s with 31's on the factory Rubicon with a 4:1 TC.
Go 4.88 you will be MUCH happier all around.

Ditto.....8.8 with 4.88's/D30 and a 6 speed. I'm at 2700 rpms or so at 65mph in 6th. Gobs of passing/hill power. Best $ I ever spent
I DD mine 40 miles a day getting 12-14 mpg depending on my foot. Don't fear the gear......you'll love it!
