Yep...jumped on that!!And used the $1500 discount code too I hope.
So far so good, I'm interesting to see how the transmission goes with the programmer. Should know soon!How’s that going??
I really like the repower R2.8 in my CJ. I have about a 4.5" RE lift and run 33's. I re-geared from 4.10s to 3.55's after a couple of months of driving. I'm right around 2000 RPMs @ 70 MPH in 5th gear. My transmission is the AX-15, similar I think to the H55F. I will tell you that my CJ doesn't like going into 5th gear until around 60 MPH, and is very comfortable 65+ (all the way to 80 easy). Around town I usually don't use 5th at all, I get about 26-30 MPG around town and about 22 on the highway (65 to 75).I see you have one installed in your CJ...how is that?
I pairing mine up with a new H55F five speed.
