Basically..my new 5th would be similar to my current 4th, but with a little better RPM range for the freeway.

Kris, I made an excel sheet that tells you your speed at a given RPM and tire size with your gearing if you want that.

Edit: Note, its in mph... not kmh

My email is 036speed@gmail.com

I feel like there is a redneck joke in here....

If you truck is slower than a milling machine feed rate.... you might be a redneck...

Hmmmm.....

Looks like you need to go for that ZF/1356 doubler setup on 40's....we will be even....lol

Then there will be the B2...4.10s and 31s, no doubler, no ****s given...showing us how its done.lol

EDIT: Apparently TRS auto censors the f-bomb...

Another thing we haven't factored in is the actual rolling diameter of a big, squishy tire at 7-10 psi..lol
