Haven't been thinking much about driving impressions just yet because I've been more focused on making sure everything is meshing correctly. The solid subframe bushings transmit a LOT of gear whine to the cabin so it's been hard to focus. I will say it is noticeably quicker with the 3.62 final drive ratio. Not crazy quick, but noticeable. Haven't taken it over 50 mph yet because there's a bit of driveline vibration; worried it might be the driveshaft or CSB and don't want to push it too hard... I need to get an alignment too.
I'll try to follow up, maybe in my project thread, with some driving impressions later.
