Man, didn't realize the 3 speed in my buddy's YJ had such a tall first gear - it's only 2.74:1. Coupled with the 2.72:1 tcase and (if stock, haven't gotten him to open diff cover yet to check) 3.73 gears, it's got like 1/3 the crawl ratio a stock JLR with the 8 speed has. Crazy.

Makes me wonder how long it takes for the torque converter to match input and output speeds with a 1st gear like that.

I dunno, I just got to imagine GenPop would absolutely not tolerate that kind of ratio lol

Then you add lots of hops to cover up all the bad flavors..... BECAUSE.......



🤣

I'm a firm believer that the reason some many micro-breweries over-hop everything is to cover up the fact they don't know how to make good beer.

Math is hard. Got this off the Weather Tech Mud Flaps thread.

"I paid $50 for front flaps 3 years ago, it looks like now they are $80. That's a 160% increase."
Yeah I started looking at that thread and then it went the way it went and I was like "Well this is a shitshow"

"60% increase"

or

"160% of the original price"

Not both....
Kind of like when someone's counting unhatched avians or some shit
