Tim, what are your rear end gears?
32" tires are fairly tall... and if you've got the 3.55 gears, you're setup
for low highway rpms, not acceleration... I've got 33" tires and the 3.92's
in a 1500 Ram 4x4, and it's pretty doggy off the line... I think I need at
least 4.10's and maybe 4.56's to really jump off the line... try racing him
in 4WL... if you don't have the full time 4x case, you'll have to do it in
the dirt... top speed is only 50 or so, but it gets there in a real hurry in
4L!
Jeep Cherokees are also lighter.. they are unibody, not full-frame trucks...
