I got a Rustys Offroad 3" suspension and a 1" Body lift.. IM just "hoping" my mileage is that good. After the gears itll be better i hope. lol

YEah. I dont know why my supporting member thing hasnt shown up yet.. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

It amazes me that my big rig[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] gets better mileage then jeeps[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]

You need to send a email to moderators@atvconnection.com and let them know your supporting member icon hasn't popped up yet. Then, your account will be reset. Unfortunatley, can't do it any other way[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img][/quote]

Im getting 15-18 right now. So i expect a lil drop. ITs not too bad. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

Yeah Ill shoot out an email tonight if it still hasnt shown up..

AAhhhhh, now I understand. When my truck was lifted and the bigger tires put on[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] I lost about 4 mpg[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] So, if the price of fuel eventually gets to me[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] I'll just go back to stock[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] to improve my mileage.

Ugh. Worked for about 4 hours last night on the body lift and motor mount lift. The MML is a PITA! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] Ive got one side on but i gave up for the night before i got to the other side. Im essentially replacing the motor mounts with taller ones..

You must have funny mirrors on your ceiling[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] Remember, the sticker in the lower right corner says- Object(s) in mirror appear larger, then they are[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
