Samurai :awesomework:
Before I went to 5.8 in the t-case I was getting 21-24.
That was with 4.62's lockers and 4.16 t-case gears with a 16V & 33's.
It would do 70 easy on the freeway

When I went to the 5.8's it dropped to 21-22.
I just put 35's on it and have not run the MPG numbers yet.

My little brothers 84 subaru wagon gets 30 city and 35 highway. hard to go wrong with something like that, covered all the way back, dual range 4 wheel drive. can hold 4 people AND the dog in relative comfort. Plus theres just something cool about being able to do a almost 180 degree gravel turn at more than 30 mph with that wagons low range and be totally in control
