[QUOTE="Ferg513, post: 432148, member: 20394"] I have a 2018 JKU Sport automatic 5 speed with 3.21 gearing. I am upgrading to 3.73 next week! I put about 25-30k highway miles driving a year. We camp a lot and Im looking to purchase a 6x12 Vnose enclosed trailer (1250lbs) to convert into a camper. Only adding 400ish lbs of cargo. Driving flat to hilly highways. No mountains. I am looking for real life feedback on towing a cargo trailer on the highway with a 6x12 - 7x14 cargo trailer with 3.73s? Will these suffice and pull decent at 65-70 mph? It’s mostly a wind resistance issue I would imagine not weight? I don’t want to go to 4.10s preferably if I don’t have to because of the amount of highway driving I do for work without towing. I want to find a 5th gear sweet spot on the highway towing. The 3.21 gears suck. Thanks! [/QUOTE]
