In theory yes, along with that plastic air dam. I wouldn't think of it returning to stock performance though. Your working against weight; rolling resistance and aerodynamic drag. And that's with ideal conditions. Good luck.

Funny reading this....I have an 09 JKU, 42,000 km, 33 inch tires, Terraflex budget lift and 1-1/2" body lift, Procalled the tires into computer, jet pcm module..........and I was just in Cadillac MI a few weeks ago on a windy day, going through the hills (I live in a super flat area) and the tranny was hunting so much I thought it was going to blow. I have been putting off a re-gear, but I think I might have to re-think that before the transmission blows/overheats (going to install a trans. cooler also). Changing the whole rear end for me is overkill, as well as more $$$ than I am willing to spend, but a re-gear is in orger so this brick can get better MPG's on the highway!
