Dunno why, but that made me chuckle.

Because who goes over 100 in a Jeep lmao. It's such a random number.

Engines are most efficient in their powerband. When you add larger tires and don't regear, you change that overall ratio and it lugs the engine making it work harder. If you regear it gets you back to that stock overall ratio, so you might actually get some mileage back.

When people say you lose the mileage they don't mention that they're staying with the same size tire. So say if you ran stock tires and stock gears(3.73) and wanted a bit more power you could regear to say 4.10s or 4.56s. That will give a lot more power taking off, but will wind out faster on the top end. If you do that for a daily driver you're gonna be reving more when cruising and that's what saps mileage.

Maybe try and start a few of the bolts yourself. It will hang down but you can start em all and go back and tighten them down.

Jack stands, blocks. I've installed hitches on my vehicles, by myself. Easier with 2 people but do able by one.
By the way the MOPAR KK hitch was the easiest install.

Had a friend come to help. But when he found out he had to lay on the wet ground he said no! True friends I got lol. I did install the wiring today! I also cleaned and oiled my K&N air filter!

Yep you need better friends. One's that aren't afraid they'll melt.
Or something to lay on.
An old box and piece of rug work.

So I have been busy

heres some more stuff I have been up too

Painted the center console and the chrome off the shifter area

I added my cb in a spot that may surprise you :frankie:

Also hooked it up to the stereo system too :mrgreen:

(To be completely honest it was actually my wife's idea :mrgreen:

)

I also changed my shifter knob

I will try to take some more photos during the day it was either raining or after dark

Sorry for late reply but yes no center AC, because I'm not really an AC user I just roll the windows down

and if I need to use the AC I still have all the other vents through out the car too, all I really care about is the heater on my feat and the defrosters too

Congerts, did you have help?

Added some flush mount leds to rear bumper. I already had all the wiring done from a while back with different lights. They come on automatically in reverse or switched on anytime.
Easy job with the Hypertherm powermax 45 plasma cutter.
