Alright so, I'm interested in getting an idea for what the gas milage would be like on an Cj with an 1995 YJ 4.0 liter (242 CID) fuel injected 6 cylinder. Est. horse power 209, est. torque 248 ft. lbs @ 3,500 rpm,1995 Jeep XJ model 999 series/3 speed automatic tranny, Completely rebuilt OEM 1989 Jeep XJ Dana 30 with 3.55 gear ratio. Custom bracketry to accommodate front suspension,Completely rebuilt OEM 1989 Jeep XJ Dana model 35 with 3.55 gear ratio. FRONT SUSPENSION
Custom built 12? suspension lift (patent pending); custom adjustable 5 link helm joint, radius arm system, custom sway bar to prevent torque steer. Pro comp powder coated 6 inch front coil springs, custom built upper coil spring plate system, custom track bar system and 6 inch Pro comp lift shocks (the 35 inch tires were chosen for maximum articulation and clearance).
REAR SUSPENSION
OEM 1989 Jeep XJ 3 inch lift rear leaf springs, spring over conversion, Pro comp 6 inch lift shocks, custom fabricated shackles.
Horrible. Jeeps have never been known for good gas mileage.
20mpg... maybe.
