How about the average fuel consumption ? Do you see a difference in it ?
It depends on how hard I'm pushing it. When it's super soft I'm running higher rpms and lower gears. Sometimes using 4L when it's real soft. Gas mpg is definitely noticable, that's for sure.

This is a great look. I want to keep my 18" wheels, but i had been thinking about going to 285 (vs the stock 265) and not lift/level but I love the look of your ride. May have to do the lift and jump to 295 as well.

My temps have stayed "normal" for most offroading in low range and low rpms(<3K rpms). However, there is a 20 - 40 degree grass/gravel trail that is .6 miles long. I'm in low range 2nd gear between 4 - 5K rpms with a fair amount of wheel spin on the steeper sections - momentum is your friend. My avatar is of the truck at the top. By the time I reach the top the temp gauge is just below the red, and the cooling fan is spinning full blast - not sure of the exact temp.

Good looking build! Have you considered an aftermarket grill with the light bars built into it? May be easier and give you a more custom look.
