Not bad - looks like it's ready for bedliner.

I like the blue theme - if I ever go down the King Coilover mod path I may do that with Wilbur .

Default RPMs and Gears

Here's an interesting RPM chart based on a speed of 70 mph.

The chart is for a completely stock motor, add a air intake, exhaust, superchips programmer, and it will move up one color(in my opinion).


I have an auto, 5.13's, 37's and a programmer and drop in filter upgrade and mine uses OD alot, gearing seems correct when I am wheeling and I use it as a daily driver . My only complaint is that I don't have 492hp 1065tq at the rear wheels in my jeep like I have in my truck. (dynoed last weekend, had to get that in).

Any snow over in Al? I have about 4 inches and counting!

Im in huntsville right now and there is no snow on the ground. I live about 30 miles south and there is about 3-4 inches according to my wife.

Side Note: I am running a muffler and superchips, auto, and 33's... I daily drive my jeep a ton. I already have 23K in 10mths. So I think the 4.56 will be just fine.

I'm planning on going to Mountainside Offroad Park this Saturday. I will be leaving around 800-900 that morning.

If anybody would like to meet up, I would suggest the Tractor Supply in Arab.
