5.38 gears increased my MPG. Try pushing 33s or 35s with a 2.6 I4 and stock gears, I was always down 1-2 gears from where I run now.

Offroad the 50% increase, that I see a few complaints about, it a wonderful thing. ALl I can say is "Try it before you say it should be more" It is enough to make a BIG difference.

I ran the 3.07s for a year before I added the 5.38s so I have seen the progression piece by piece. Each piece has been well worth it.
