I thought the same thing too, but at 70 mph..which i will probly never go over this, will be running 2300 rpm. Plus, if i wanna go to 35 after i build the axles im good too and dont have to worry

 

How bad do you think 4.56 would do on gas?

 

4.56's for sure with 33's

 

It depends on what he wants out of it. With only 33s on an automatic tranny I wouldn't go higher than 4:10s if you want to be able to drive it on the highway and still get decent gas mileage.

If you're only looking for more power, sure go with 4.56s but don't expect good gas usage at higher speeds.

I like this chart the best. You want to stay as close to green as possible.

**note: the chart is for a manual. Automatic = more rpms at lower speeds, less when in overdrive (still stay close to green for highway use, lower speeds will equal more power due to higher revs than what is shown.).

 

so, i went out to get my emmisions done and saw a trail.... crusing through it after i got them done and thought i was and tried to go through some mud...this is what happend









Got pulled out by a ford, and the day continued... after a short break

 

See i have been reading back and forth and sometimes getting two diffrent views... when i calculate for my new ratio i get about 430... so 20 up or 20 down. which way to go?

 

Thats a nasty mud hole. looks good though. How are the flares holding up?

 

Great. no problems so far..ive been using and abusing them!

 

Your Jeep looks great! Love those flat fenders too, might have to get myself a set of those.

 

They are nice. much better option than the cut outs or whatever else...

 

found a new toy for the jeep! 799 bucks.



and i found a winch, lol, from this place called promark. used to be gorrilla. seems like alot of guys use them on their atvs...all the reviews ive read about guys using them on jeep/trucks whatever have been excellent. they make a 10k flavor for 390 or 450 for wireless.

 

I'm sorry but there is no way in hell I would dare sleep in that.

 

Well that gives true meaning to your project's name,I see you got la muchacha sucia. Jeep looks good man.

 

What. Why not? It's friggin awesome. Those suckers are built stout

 

i'm more worried about doing damage to the jeep. that is alot of weight sitting on the gutter mounts.
