i think there's a lot to gane in the aro of sidekicks.
the back end is very un aro.
small narrow tires, clutch fan deletion, with the gears from a auto the 4.60 or the 4.30s
behind the 25% O\D manual trans, i think one would push near 40 mpg.
convert one to 2wd and you will shed about 150\200LBs
use the 2wd springs and lower the ride a 1\2"
