Re: Gears front /back

Yeah kipps..your setup will probably be just fine...i had a 99 z71,5.3/4l60 that had 31s and 3 73s..i used to tow with it and it did just fine..
1st in a nv4500 isnt real low..not like a sm465 anyway...my C30 has a stock LQ9 6.0 with headers and a dyno tune..I regularly pull 10k loads with it...it will cruise all day at 75-80 mph with this setup...I love the way it works...at 65mph its turning just over 2000rpm...i really like the way it is..
The IH hasn't been driven but I tried to duplicate my C30 setup on it...only diff is it is a 5.3...but with the little taller tire I think the 4,56s will be fine..
