I finally drove it to work for once. Promptly found out the rear door windows and locks don't work so that's fun I get to investigate. Door wires are connected so...
When I got to work, I immediately drove another person's NSG370 in a lifted Sahara Unlimited and can confirm the Dorman shift tower is definitely worth getting if you have any complaints about the stock one.
Anyway, after driving it... 6th gear is kind of pointless. The speedometer is the same for both the 255x75 and the underinflated 285x70. 5th gear at 80mph is 4000rpm and 6th gear is under 3000. You can accelerate in 6th gear but there isn't enough snot to overcome the barn door aerodynamics. I'd like to see why the dyno sheet is on these motors. I bet it looks like horse **** below about 1800rpm.
Looks like gears are cheap for it, but would that make first gear worthless for street driving?
