I've got a 76 FJ40 stock 2F and 4 speed tranny. It has well worn 31" tires and I'm assuming stock 4.11 gears in the diffs. Going by seat of the pants, the 2F just doesn't sound or feel like it wants to go over 45mph. In other words, if I had a 5th gear I'd be shifting at the 40 - 45 mph range. Does this sound about right? I read alot of threads about people doing 60+ or even 75 'easy'.
Maybe I'm just to conservative. What is your easy cruising speed? Thanks.
