Just an FYI I called and talked at length with these guys and the gears are not going to happen in the near future. It appears that the cost to get a small run of these gears made would put the price in the $1500-2000 range. A bit outside of what mere mortals would be willing to pay.Originally Posted by 06JeepXKHEMI
Yes! Please let us know how this works out. Cool project.
I'm just trying to locate the harness that plugs into the differential. If I can't get my hands on one ill just make my own.

I had to order one before. I will see if I can dig up the part number for you.
2006 Jeep Commander Limited, 4.7L, QDII, 4" Superlift Supension Lift, Procomp Xtreme Mud Terrain Tires 285 70R17, Mickey Thompson Classic ii Wheels 17X9, AEM Brute Force CAI, Superchip flashpaque, 4XGuard belly guard, 4XGuard Front Guard, Rear Grab handles and Defender Roof Rack.
P/N 56050223AD this is the "jumper" harness that plugs into the top of the front differential. Mopar refers to it as a wiring cradle. My connector broke on mine that's why I had to order a new one.

Well i'll be damned... I was looking for that part in the manual forever yesterday!
FYI, the 2007 parts manual lists it as P/N 56048637AA
If the tie rod end is moved up 4 inches on the SL knuckles in relation to the wheel hub, why would the steering angle be changed? Is the steering rack relocated, too?

I'll be able to figure it out better when I have the knuckle in front of me. I expect that the length of the arm on the knuckle changes a bit... maybe the superlift knuckle has a 1/4" shorter tie rod arm to help clear wheels, which then increases how much the tires turn for a given wheel angle.
The steering rack stays in the stock location. The tie rod end moves up with the new steering knuckle like you mentioned.
