My solid axle LN106 has stock 4.3 gearing and from memory it is close to 3000 at 110 on 235/75/15 rubber. I now run 32" and obviously i revs lower at 110 but the speedo is out as well so it's hard to say exactly what it revs at. I find 4.3 fine at highway speeds with a Turbo - before I turboed my 3L it was a dog to keep at 100 but that's a seperate issue.
