Diff ratios

Can someone help me. My 75 series originaly had 31 x 10.5 tyres on it and was revving its arse off. I changed the tyres to 33 x 12.5 x 15. Not revving as hard but at 100 km/h it still revs at 2400 rpm. My mate has the same size tyres and his revs at 1800rpm. Is it the diff ratios?. If so how do i find out what my ratios are and what should they be? Cheers guys.

2400rpm sounds about right at 100km/h. To hazard a guess I'd say your diffs are the standard 4.11's. Nothing wrong with it, if you overgear it any more it'll be a pig to get off the line.
Don't know what setup your mate is running to cruise at 1800 rpm.

x2 sounds like you have 4.11 ratio's to me. Your friend must have different ratios or transfer case gears?
Are you both talking indicated 100kph or a GPS or corrected read out

Does a stock 1HZ even have enough torque to push 100km/h at 1800rpm?
Sounds like tacho reading wrong......
