HDJ-80 Re-Gear Tow ?

Hi mates .. i post this thread in the 80 series with no much participation ..

http://forum.ih8mud.com/80-series-te...g-options.html

Hi guys ... Buddy here have a 80 Turbo Diesel ( same engine as mine ) with 35" SS tires and 4" lift.

The issue is .. I´m thnking in the right R&P options for he .. ya I know all of us gotta said 5.29 .. and was my first thought .. but keep in mind we are talking about Turbo Diesel engines that make full boost and top peak torque numbers at 2000 rpm ..

3000 rpm it's more than enought rpm to get all the power out ..

He usually tow the race car ( a 10.8 seg corvette ) with the 80 series ..

What you think .. ?

My bet it's for the 4.88 ...

thanks !
