  • To all with 3.73 swap from 3.08s

    Can you give me a before and after gas milage? I didnt check my before when I did the swap over a year ago but am figuing my mileage at the moment and its not looking good, so can anyone give me a before and after either miles to the tank or MPG, or just the after, no before needed. Thanks a bunch in advance,
    John

    I stayed the same, 270-290 miles filling up with about 13.5 gallons. That means around 20mpg average.

        Actually, no, it won't be. The 3.73s make the job of turning the wheels easier for the engine. I actually noticed a small gain since I do most of my driving in the city. Is your driving in the city or highway?

          I switched my TA from 2.73 to 3.73. My highway gas mileage only went down from 27.5 to 24.5 mpg. City mileage stayed about the same. ~21-22 mpg.

            most of mine is highway., which should have the biggest effect I guess since your spinning higher RPMS at cruising speeds
