Here’s my ‘06 that I’ve only owned for 2 weeks. It’s great except for those awful 3.07 gears. After regearing she will be closer to perfect. It’s running on12.50/33 tires & has the 4.0 liter I6 with the 6 speed manual transmission. What do y’all think? 4.11 gears?

No way. 456 if 33 is your final tire size. I remember the downshifting from 6th to 5th as I hunted for gears on the highway. 456 is a dream with that engine/transmission/tire size.
Still have lots planned for it but I thinks it’s the best one.
I hope your work includes a new grill.

Here are my current two. You’re looking at a total purchase price of $4500 for the both of them! Elbow grease and a few little things got them to this point but the checkbook will soon open and mods will come.

Guess it helps to actually add the pics...d’oh!
Still wrenching on mine to fix countless issues the PO induced (engine, suspension, electrical, cosmetic, pretty much everything) but it should be drive able soon! But that doesn’t mean it will be finished...

Well they’re German engineered
(BMW grill inserts). The passenger side is a cold air intake and the driver side lets heat out. Under hood temps are noticeably lowered.
Those look damn nice - and look to me to be located in an intelligent location as well.
Well to be honest they’re is a ton of science involved in locating the optimal position - flip your hood up and where the windshield header hits is about center.
I wonder how AEV came up with the same spot?
