So I have had my 97 XT for a while now. I love it. Thinking about doing the TT and warrior shackles. I already have rear sag and need that fixed. Added some trail diggers a few months ago and the tires grip great in the mud and on the road. Put a ram air filter in it and got a little better gas mileage. Needs an o2 sensor which I have just need to have my exhaust guy put it in (one that's bad is against tranny and exhaust has to be cut and dropped to be replaced). And speaking of exhaust, I have removed both rear cats and the resonator and it's all new from the front cats back. Have a flow master super 40 muffler that sounds great! Both pipes come out at an angle behind the rear passenger side tire and look kinda like the exhaust tip on the new power strokes. Anyways, besides my exhaust leak and o2 sensor, what can I do about my gas mileage? I'm only getting around 12 - 14mpg.. also, going back to the lift, has anybody done a TT, torsion key, shackles, and aal all together to get like a 4-5 inch lift or is it even possible? Also, how can I add pics of my ride?
