Just speculating at this point.....but, if i changed out the axle with one with a lower gear ratio...i think the stock one is 3.73:1....with another dana 30...i've seen some with 3.31 or 3.51:1....what would this do???...i guess i'm looking for better highway milage...but would it effect non highway driving too much....could i counter that by driving with the OD dis-engaged when not on the highway..????any ideas....anyone done this???....thanx..........j.
