final gear ratio

[bobb@domain.elided (Bob Blair)]

Suggest you run it with the 33's & 3.45 rear.  Check the mileage & see how
it feels.  You'll have to do an awful lot of driving to make back the cost
of 2 R&P swaps on the difference between 33/3.34 & 33/3.07.
I ran 3.07 with 33's for a little while and it was OK on-road, but a pig
off-road.
