My bj60 with normal driving is about 10-12l/100km, or 20-24mpg. Depends how much is off rd/city/hwy. That's with 4.1 gears and 235/85/16.

keep the small tires and drive 55..

low and slow is the key.

When I have numbers on my rig. (35's 3.70's and super short) I'll post them
35's, 4.11's 5.0/aod/203/splittcase = about 2100 rpm at 70 mph = 18 mpg.
City start and stop, between 11 and 14 depending on how much fun I have.
