ohh k, thats great, mine sits on 2500 at 100 with the 33s.
it still makes good power at 2300, so towing should still be good.
thanks for the info.

my td 80series has less grunt on 35"s, towing expect to use 4th a lot more, 5th with be just out of the sweet spot a lot more often.

35's normally make for a fair fuel increase, and take the truck off its torque high spot.
Changing to 4.88's with 35's works best in the 100, and give the best economy, we find.
And straight bolt in 4.88's are now available to suit the 100 and 105 models.

Checked on the way home (non turbo) 2150 rpm at 100kph, 2200 at 107kph.
Standard gearing towing a Jacko camper with 275/75/16 i was getting about 16.5l per 100 ks. With the 315/75/16 i am getting about 21lt per 100ks
(275/75/16 was up to Whitsundays and back to the Tweed Coast. 315/75/16 was to the Flinders Rangers and back)
