    How would I know...

    I haven't taken it to the top end since the first week I got it, just to see how far the needle would go...

    But I'd guess that it would still top out around 110-115, as it's pretty close to the orig gearing. (7% diff)

    Prolly not a good idea to take meaty beaty big & bouncy off road tires up to that speed anyway...

    Point taken but what I was thinking about was the increased rev at highway speeds. I forgetted that your gearing with big meat took you back to close to stock performance.

    So realistically, what do you folks in the know think the perceived difference would be going from 4.54s to 4.77s? Is it too close to even make much of a difference? Or will there be some apparent gains? And no, I am not talking about the VX. I am talking about the Trooper. Something came in the mail today and it might just be Unicorn Tears (with a few hen's teeth in there as well).
