Truck: 1989 C2500 5.7 TH400 trans with 4.10 rear end
Sitrep: Will need to tow a 20' car hauler all over the midwest this coming summer - about 5500 to 6000 lbs max never more.
Question: What would you do? A) leave it alone be happy with 60 mph and 9 mpg. B) Leave TH400 in it and swap out to 3.73 rear end. C) leave 4.10 in and replace TH400 with 60E or 80E. D) spend 12K and get a different new to me truck with 150K miles on it.
The truck is in perfect condition with 120K miles on it so don't really want another truck... I have 2500$ to spend maybe a little more if needed...
any thoughts?
