Reply to comment by PoorInCT in Inspection requirements for OBDII test on a 22year old Jeep? by g-wilks

I chuckled at getting it to 55. That's terrifying. 4" lift with another 100lbs on the roof and super soft worn front suspension. New emu rear I did a few years ago though. The only thing actually wrong with the car is the fuel pump assy and the Bosch one is discontinued 78685 or something. I'm going to swap with a junkyard one but want to get it to pass first in case I need it for the summer. As of now it's just used for camping and towing our little 15' Bayliner.

Good luck with that. I wish I had the time to actually fix something!

I recall going about 50 on the highway, at 3500rpm! Mine has a 6.5" lift, with 32" Mud Terrains, but I'm going to be swapping to 33" All Terrains! That speed is a little sketchy, but luckily most of my commute I can take secondary roads. Right now, with fuel at the prices it is, I'll just be using my Jeep in the winter, as I use my 1993 Civic for summer. It saves so much fuel, and is just shy of $30 for a full tank that'll last me 2 weeks! My Jeep's average MPG with the lift and tires was around 10-12MPG! No Bueno! I'm definitely thinking about regearing too!
