....Yup I here ya joe. First I want to get the 700r4 in there and put the 15 inch wheels under it and go from there. I haven't ruled out some better gears for the rear, as I have allready been looking for some. But for now it really sucks with this set up.JOE VAN wrote:BIG W that 411 gear is killing you drop to a 308 or 323 and you will pick up 40-45 MPH and probleywill be doing 70-75 at 2700 RPM'SBig W wrote:

.........LOL...GOOD IDEA. ...When I went to Zephorhills on my Van's madin voyage 150 mile round trip I did 55 all the way and a couple of 60 mph bursts any faster and I think there would be no way to Stop or Turn Safely in any amount of time to avoid anything.!!!................... We have a BIG problem here in Florida on our highways with Truck Tire Caps everywhere because of the Excessive Heat and sometimes there is no way to avoid them especially when the guy in front of you or next to you hits one.!!!...RodStRace wrote:Just make a cardboard sign to show 'em.
