I ssearched and did not find any info.
I knew that installing a lift on my LC was going to result in decreased MPG. I just don't understand why this is so. Nothing changes mechanically, other than a slight increased angle at the front differential (note: I have a diff drop) but I don't see this as being the culprit. I was already running 285s before the lift, so tire size is not the culprit either.
I am left with aerodynamics, i.e more air allowed under the car and somehow increasing drag. But again, I fail to believe that this is the sole cause. Based the computer's calculated mileage, I dropped approx. 1.5 MPG for my daily driving pot lift.
What do ya'll think? Or maybe someone knows and can expound this issue for me.
