So the shop I'm regearing at says it necessary to install a new carrier because to install 4.56s on a JK it's necessary...although, I'm told him that none of the other KKs I know of have needed new carriers because I'm pretty sure we have a 3.73+ carrier already installed...Tom? 4x4kayak? Anyone who's regeared to 4.56s? Haha |

99% sure you just install gears and locker. No need for a new carrier. You could try checking the JK forums, there's bound to be guys going from 3.73 to 4.88s or 5.13s. Edit: Second post: http://www.wranglerforum.com/f274/dana- ... 85308.html 3.73 is the carrier break. If you go numerically higher you use the same carrier. |

That was my understanding too...I guess they're just used to JKs with manuals and their lower gears and different carriers. |

That and a lot of thew new JKs come with 3.21s and probably jump to 4.88 and 35s or 4.56s and 35s which means they need a new carrier. |

3.73 is the carrier break on a JK. So your 3.73 carrier will work. Just helped a guy do some in his JK d30 3.73 to 4.88. Same carrier worked with both. |

Just remind them that you already have 3.73s, and don't need a new carrier. |

Haha, that's what I'll be doing since new carrier is another $130...already overspending... |
