I'm done. It feels so much smoother! The truck coasts a lot easier and such with the Warn hubs.

It will be a few days till I can get some MPG figures. Keep guessing.

Hubs were $140, all other parts were less than $200.

I did the work myself but it would be about $175 at a good shop to have it done.

I'm sticking with -1 for the first tank, but I'll go with 0 for the 2nd tank. I have at one time or another done all those things to my truck and nothing changed with the fuel economy with any of them.

I'm guessing you'll report about 5MPG, but in actual fact, statistical analysis would show no difference at a 95% confidence interval due to the large standard deviation.

Ouch! I should have stayed awake in match class, Troy!

I have been keeping track to a tenth of a mile at every fill-up since April so it should be interesting.

mileage

I say 3.15 increase. I did a fuel filter, lines and O2 sensor with maybe a 1 mpg gain at best on my 94 3.0 with ADD. I still need to do the rest on his list. I'm stuck between new Warns and used Aisins though.

I'll say 7.2 mpg's. My runner gets 17 to 21 mpg's and I haven't done the electric fan mod yet or manual hubs. Both on my list of things needed.
