37" KM2s? Stock gearing? Street driving report please.

I really cruise in my 80. I never run it up in RPMs so around town they feel normal. The speedo is 10 mph off and the RPM's are much lower at my usual highway speed.

If money were no object a set of gears would be nice to have but the way I use this truck I cannot see the need. Even if I went into the axles to upgrade the axles and such I think I would save that money.

These trucks are not fast and they are not hard-core rockcrawlers so I think the gearing is good.

They are quiet because they are new. They also track nicely. My caster is off now that I have the spacers on there and just the OME caster correction but that really is just showing up when I brake hard. I wants to pull to the left or right more that it did in the past.
 
Looks Good Nolen!!
 
Hot DAMN!!! dig it












and I hate you for having an 80 and hunered that looks fine while my junk is brrrooke

I put the Landtank Caster Plates on mine with J's and a front spacer and am very happy with the set up. Bit of a pain to install but I would surely do it again.

Things move fast around here Josh. If you blink your eyes, you might miss something.

I have bought and sold about 2x what you see on my web page. Most don't stick around long enough to get photographed beyond the F/S ad.

It's all good. My kitty is built back up after dumping the Bronco so I am on the prowl for some good deals to turn. :D
