[Benzo]

maybe I'm missing some critical information here.....
We pulled our Maverick from OC to Bullhead this last weekend with the Jeep - LOL
Jeep did fine, but you got to rev her up going up the hills.
only reason we took the jeep instead of the F250 6.7 Powerstroke is because we were going jeeping also

It's an excuse for him to get a real truck. Get a 5.9 cummins with a built auto. You'll never wipe the grin off your face. I'm runnin 38's band towing this

Clean 5.9's are like 7.3's - getting harder and harder to find.
I'm always keeping my eye out for a 2003 with the 7.3 in it - we used to run the 7.3's over 400K before retiring them.

Clean 5.9's with more than 100K miles are selling for more used than they did new around here!

Id love to see a jeep pull a 20ft trailer with two mavericks on it. There'd be jeep gutz all over the highway

You are not allowed to own a Cummins until you can spell it correctly........you may have to settle for a 6.blow until then?:saint:

I have pulled a cord of green oak with my Samurai.....two Mavs for a properly geared Jeep is doable.

You don't need a diesel for that load. But you do have the wrong 5.7

I have a super sweet 2002 7.3 that I luv and im a chevy guy owned a 05 duramax 06 cummins ho and now 02 7.3 !

and a 04 wrangler unlimited !

The Jeep pulls just fine, much better than the last couple of chevy's I owned......
I suspect the Jeep will go over 100K without needing a new transmission too.
My buddy used to pull his trailer with a Tundra, it would pull the load at about 5,700 rpm - I would pull twice the weight at about 2,000 rpm up the same hill.

Didnt intend on starting a pissing contest.Lol

 

[rocker4x4]

to OP How does it pull? Looks like rollin on 35's? What gears you running?? maybe new gear ratio would help a bit!!

 

[Hollywood]

Hey sloppy box I get it I have been trying to justify spending the money go get back into a diesel also. Any little reason helps I want one bad but the right side of my brain keeps telling me that I should make do with what I have and save the coin. Lol

It pulls fine set my superchip to tow/haul and away I go. Actually running 36" bf km2. With a gear ratio of 396.
