Climbing Colorado Passes

Well, I am in Denver. I spend as much time as I can in the mountains. I have a 99 with 3.5 inchs of lift and 32s, and stock gears. It is an auto also, so I think I might be driving what you are looking at getting, mine is not for sale though.

I can do ok going up the hills, but if I loose speed I probably won't get back up to where I was. I can keep it between 55 and 65 with out too much problem though. Silverthorn to the tunnel I can keep it around 60 or better, but the tranny will be shifting between 2,3, and 4. In mine the gears with the set up I have do not hold speed well in 4th gear, unless the road is flat or I am going down hill. Any slight up hill and it wants 3rd. I plan on getting to at least 4.10s or maybe 4.56s.
