<img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" /> I'm looking forward to wheeling with the 33's soon.. I'm just hoping the Front diff will hold up with the swampers... (4.10 open w/ 31's showed some carnage, Pics of that will be up soon) Hopefully Zuk can explain that one to me.. What pics? I bet you're getting better gas mileage but with gas soon to be $5, now you should get a locking gas cap. Otherwise, you will find your tank on empty on of these mornings.......get it soon too cause soon the shelves will be depleated of caps!  I know this because I am a psychotic! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cyclops.gif" alt="" />

yeah, 4.88's are pretty much awesome when coming from 4.10's.

I haven't checked the Mileage yet, might be a little while before I do a complete Fill-up.. Thankfully I have a DD that gets 40mpg.

Mine has a locking door, otherwise I'd be getting a cap.. I'll try to get pics up this weekend of that diff.. It's an open 4.10 diff that had some metal chips on the magnet.. Opened the Front cover and 2 broken ring teeth with 50% of the other ones cracked.. Wth? <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/drunk.gif" alt="" />.. Funny thing is that I had no idea there was anything wrong except for clicking that I thought was coming from the CV.
