392 coming with 3.73. Planning on 37’s. I put 4.56 on my 2019 Moab with 37’s with a very noticeable improvement in ride quality. Anyone planning on regearing their 392 with larger tires?

Yeah but torque multiplication will be “slightly” betterTransmission gearing is the same as the other automatics: https://s3.amazonaws.com/chryslerme...bicon_392_Specsla6s2mf70hctfgb5q521eniaq4.pdf
Actually it's slightly less than the theoretical maximum of a 2.0 Rubicon in 4-low.Yeah but torque multiplication will be “slightly” better
So you saying the 392 needs more torque right? SUPERCHARGER!!!!!Actually it's slightly less than the theoretical maximum of a 2.0 Rubicon in 4-low.
2.0: 295 lb.-ft. x 4.71: first gear x 4:1 transfer case x 4.10:1 differential ratio = 22,787 lb.-ft. @ axle
392: 470 lb.-ft. x 4.71: first gear x 2.72:1 transfer case x 3.73:1 differential ratio = 22,459 lb.-ft. @ axle

Sure at WOT, but anyone wheeling the 392 like that is gonna grenade parts pretty damn quick. The low end torque of the 392 will perform exponentially better in real-world wheeling.Actually it's slightly less than the theoretical maximum of a 2.0 Rubicon in 4-low.

FWIW: I've read that the 2.0 limits torque in 4-low. I suspect this is probably true for all engines.Sure at WOT, but anyone wheeling the 392 like that is gonna grenade parts pretty damn quick. The low end torque of the 392 will perform exponentially better in real-world wheeling.
I've never felt the need for more torque. I've never not had enough torque available to do whatever stupidity I was trying to accomplish.Sure at WOT, but anyone wheeling the 392 like that is gonna grenade parts pretty damn quick.
