Have you ever taken a physics course ever in your life...
Go Jump on a 10 speed bike, put it in the highest gear, and try to go somewhere....
It's all about getting the engine at the right RPM needed for the condition you are in.

Why would I wheel in OD high range?
Mass has a lot to do with it. You have to consider everything if you want optimal performance. Not just rpm and power bands.
If I wanted the average tank crawling around on c rated trails. It would be very easy to add a ton of weight and gear it for slow. After I upgraded the axles of course to carry my tank around. Fortunately the xj is light to begin with. So the difficult part is just not adding a bunch of crap I don't really need.

Yea I know, trust me, I hate it more than anyone. But it looks cool! LMAO.
Traction and no worries about blowing a bead. I do have a friend who is fabing me up an aluminum set. But they are several months out.

Mr Newton. That is where my phrase about physics came from.
