today i drove the xj and filled it up calculated my miles from last week. figure it out getting 16 mile per gallon with the 31x10.50 on 15x8 rims. (that is with stock gears 3.55).
dont let this thread die guys. all you jeep owners out there doing things to their jeeps wheeling it/ customizing it/ and etc. post it up.

I changed the Trans oil in the pan. After I run that for a few weeks i plan on dropping the pan and changing the filter and most likely my shift solenoids. Not really looking forward to that.

I took an unplanned wheeling trip. I had a meeting at Genesee County Parks office, then some of the folks had never been to The Mounds so we took a quick run over to give them a tour. Somehow I ended up there for over 2 hours watching the big trucks play on the new Woodlands Rock Course, plus we poked around the tight twisty trails in between the two main roads. I had to be careful - I have not reinstalled my trans/engine skid after my tranny rebuild, left the winch on the shelf in the garage, no recovery gear...couldn't figure out why I couldn't talk to anyone until I realized my CB antenna was still in the garage too.
