Thnx! Sounds like I'll just continue to adjust it in my head, or just use the add on app for Google maps that uses GPS to give speed reading.

I just have to say, I used resources easily found on the Internet to buy a new speedo gear with the proper amount of teeth for my tires and gear ratio. It was probably 15 or 20 minutes to install and dirt cheap to have my speedo pretty accurate again, it’s crazy close. I bought a new o-ring as well just in case. I’m telling you, it’s worth the measly dollars it cost. There are videos on the install so you don’t go in blind.

watch out for the Quadratec speedo chart there is an incorrect one floating around on the net.....I spent like $12 bucks for gear and o-ring, took very little time and worked great.

x2 on CAI, TBS and "performance" exhausts. My jeep came with all this and it still performs dismally.

The most worthwhile would be a free-er flowing exhaust. Moving more will give you somewhat noticeable mpg increases but nothing to call home about. Not to mention you could make one up for a fraction of what it would cost you to buy one. If you're thinking about changing exhausts to sound better forget about it, the 4.0 was made with sounding like crap in mind. Jeeps don't like cold air too much so that's pretty counter productive imo.

That made me laugh, right there.

One of these days I'm going to run into one of you guys from the Great White North that has an old Winchester Model 71. That will make me happy, because I can try to talk you into posting a bunch of pictures...
 
You didn’t buy a rolling brick for gas mileage did you?

I’ve got a lj on 4.10 on stock rubi 31’s. And at best got 17.... comes with the ride.... might have a few bumpers and skid plates too
