Gears are the only way to properly fix it and restore the peformance you
remember. I'd like to see a picture of the hi-lift mounted under the hood,
if you dont mind.

Re: New Ring and Pinion Set OR Edge System Intake-Throttle Body-Control set
Ya got what ya got for gear use, no amount of tweaking will do much for
that. The 4.0 is pretty well tweaked....
Basically you have to change the gear sets if you have the bucks or just
grin and bear it and forget about a 5th gear or OD like some of us do.
I have been managing quite well for almost ten years with 33's and get
23 mpg highway just using 4th. Off road, well I am the one everyone
tries to follow to see if they can get where I am so no issues there. LOL!

Yes cheapskates and wannabees like yourself for sure.

You have very low standards for sure and you are not getting 23 MPG
either unless you are going slow with no head wind or drafting behind
a semi. It is likely another one of your tials to make you feel better
about your cobbed up rig.

Your are a dreamer for sure. A old Sami with a good driver you kick
you dream machines butt of road going place you would never get and I
know my old old J20 would eat it up on a very seriously steep hill
climb. THe reason you have no issues is because you simple do not
know any better as you have not learned much in last 10 years.
