What kind of HP and torque does the 3.9 make for the
98model year? My LR has a 4.0 8cyl and it only makes
about 185 hp or so and that was new. After 73000 miles
I would imagine it is down from that. And that's a rig that
has a curb weight of 4500 lbs sitting empty with a tank of gas. Add in
the usual stuff that is carried in the rig, passengers, some tools,
straps & chain and other misc stuff and your up around 52-5300 lbs. How
heavy is the Dak club cab 4x4?
