uum ... let see 4.5 inch coils in the front with 1 3/4 spacers i believe and I'm guessing 5 to 6 in leaves in the rear they remain under the axle ... stock shackles... it runs like a dream on the expressway I'm surprised for it being so tall.... :D ....lemme know JohnQ I'm from Texas too :brows:

thnx bud exactly what i needed ...mines an automatic so ill probably go 4:56....thnx alot ..now those numbers are city? or highway or both..?

Yes sir that is exactly what i am doing ... i was just being a curious george and wondering what sort of effects i would have mpg wise when switching gears in terms of numeric gains..i know what gears i need and suit my drivability best already for ive done all the mathematical calculations .other than just pure knowledge of jeeping . i was just looking for a real world view as in someone who might already have the setup of 35 and 4:56 gears..and see where they were numerically wise in mpg...i know I'm not going to get 10 more mpg but just curious if any other manche owner has has a ny experience with th e setup....cheers...any info is greatly appreciated... :cheers:

here's my baby....My first truck....I'm a 16 year old jeepfreak....hence my love for my manche and jeeps in general..have been around jeeps since birth and know a fair deal about them.... pops has gone through 25+ jeeps so ive got to know them pretty well...but still learning thnx to all you nice folks ... i love this site for it doesnt have all this flaming nonsense just clean jeep fun... enough typin here's my toy 1989 manche swb 4x4 4.0 automatic column shift has about 5.5 in lift...35's M/T MTZ's...for know gearing is stock on the original 30/35 but the rear is lincoln welded...I'm already looking into putting gears on it...like in 2 weeks ..the engine is stock except for a cheapo air intake..mustang injectors...and a flowmaster exhaust..oh the truck has virtually no rust!!!

If mpg is anywhere in your head, you probably should be sticking with 235s. But regardless, with 35s you should contemplating 4.56 or 4.88s. The deeper the gearing, the better. haha yes i know but i was just wondering since i am in the process of buying gears ....i wanted to see what kind of change i would see mpg wise...since I'm only getting but about 10 mpg right now (city)...any info would be great...

does any one know what type a mileage an mj with 35's and maybe 4:56 gears should get?..or 4:10's ...contemplating which direction to go...

here you go...thnx alot...Yup there 35/12.5/15 MTZ's..

here's how mine is cut.....

thnx man i willl try to check the relay on the fuel pump tommorow....i appreciate it...ill let you know tommorow...

yes sir the fuel pump sounds good for /i can hear the humming, i will check the relay tommorow when i have a chance but i want to get it fixed asap for it is my daily driver and having to crank it 4 or 5 times to get it started is not fun ...thnx any other info is appreciated...oh if you all have to move the thread i understand...

Hey guys how goes it...Well just hought id see if any one could maybe give me an insight on what nyight be buggin my truck...You see when i crank it on many times it doesnt turn on just cranks continously...ive checked the wires and everything seems fine and dandy...new battery and cables...and the starter is good...i also just recently changed the module which goes onthe steering column...any advice is greatly appreciated.... :cheers:

Wow man i love your truck!! I read on one of your posts that your gettin about 18-19 mpg...wow is that on the highway?....I'm getting ten mpg on mine in the city ...but i have 35's with 3:55 gears

u should definately install front tj flares and install them higher than stock for more clearance and so it matches the rear just my 2 cents.or cut the crap out of both fron and rear...whatever floats your boat bro...either way nice buildup i will definately follow up on it...
