Haha yeah as soon as I posted it I though to myself I better add that sneaky bit of info...I guess they did it that way because pretty much all auto's have at least 3 speeds.

 

[JonZ71]

true. but the newer ones with 6 speeds it doesn't apply

So with a 4th gear do you basically "bump" it over to the right one spot?

 

[ChrisAU]

No, it's pretty much non-applicable. Driving the truck in D instead of OD will yield a useable result.

 

[JonZ71]

i would say three spots.

 

[ChrisAU]

i would say three spots.

2-3 would be consistent with what I observed from my 35's and 3.42's in OD the other day.

 

[JonZ71]

:yes:

no noddy head? haha

 

[dirtridinz71]

If I were to do it over again I would go with 4.88 gears instead of the 4.56 I have with my 35's. Tho I hardly ever run the highway and truck mostly see off pavement use.

Truck in sig, 6 inch lift 35 inch tall tires, 90 percent in town driving 10 percent highway, probably 8 percent of the 10 on the highway it has either a scrap trailer or a full car trailer with my jeep on it.

Any and all opinions appreciated.

WHY on Earth do you need a 6-inch lift and silly tires to drive in-town or on the highway?

Get rid of that crap, the gears you have may be fine.
