ringmaster,

I show mathamaticaly your rpm @ 1265 going 55 mph in OD with 31.5 inch tires and 3.08. The same senario with 4.10:1 gears I show 1684 rpm.

Regards

I have the 4.10's with the ORP 31.5's. I turn about 1850-1900 rpm at 55. Hard to be exact since my speedo actually says 90 kph.

With my old 3.55's, I was turning about 1600 at the same speed.

I noticed a huge difference in performance from 3.55 to 4.10. I can't imagine running around on 3.08's.
