Thanks for the offer Furkew, I just might take you up on that, I'm based in the city.
I'm heading out for some 4wding on the 28th July around Wombat State Forest if you are keen to come along?
Never been out to wombat before so I might take you up on that.
What kind of tracks? Moderate/medium/hard?
Might see if my son wants to come along in his TJ if not too extreme.
I did some calculations a while back & worked out that going from 3.21 to 4.88 is the same as using 4th as the highest gear. Yes it uses a bit more on the highway but only 1-2L/100km when I tried it for a couple of months.
The big difference would be in the low gears & being able to start off & accelerate easier as well as actually drive up even small hills without haveing to change out of top gear.
