    Eco Hubs 3.90 or 3.07 for Best Fuel mileage

    Let’s get back to the bottom line. Driving a 3126B 330 hp 3.90 gears and eco hubs 85psi tires, give it the perfect driving conditions on a flat road. What gear and speed would obtain the optimal RPM for the best fuel economy? I understand other factors like weight, wind etc….. come into...

    Eco Hubs 3.90 or 3.07 for Best Fuel mileage

    So if Chris shifts into 6th at 65mph then with 3.90 it should shift int 6th around 50mph and maybe set the cruise at 55mph for optimal fuel efficiency. I’m having to pull the front axle shafts out to replace the axle housing seals. I definitely never want to do this again and I have the 3.90...

    LMTV FMTV Transfer case output seals

    I'm removing my drive shafts to replace all the U joints and see that my rear transfer case out put is leaking. Found the part for front and rear # 2950336. Anyone have a good source for these? I came a vender for $260 each but no picture and the description is not accurate. Also has any...

    Eco Hubs 3.90 or 3.07 for Best Fuel mileage

    Forgot to mention it’s a 3126 tuned to 330hp and 27,700 lbs. Realizing all the unknowns keep it simple and pretend flat ground at sea level and a steady 60 mph with 85-90psi. Optimal conditions. which should be better?

    Eco Hubs 3.90 or 3.07 for Best Fuel mileage

    Down to the wire, as I’ve started this project of installing Eco Hubs, replacing front axle housing seals, and pinion seals. My plan is / was / I’m not sure to remove my 3.07 gears and put the original 3.90 gears back in. I’m second guessing my decision, based on a good friend driving a 2007...

    I think the LMTV parts spread sheet has a typo, is it supposed to be 5-279X?

    LMTV FMTV front axle outer seal replacement

    Thanks for the advice, i was referring to the front axle steering u-joint. Now you got me thinking of the drive shaft u-joints. Are the front and rear drive shafts the same u-joints? Spicer R-279X? Edit: the lmtv parts spread sheet has that part number.... is it supposed to be 5-279X?

    LMTV FMTV front axle outer seal replacement

Now the total job is going to be the 4 axel seals #59 & 9 two of each, front and rear pinion seals, change front and rear third members from current 3.07 gears to go back to 3.90 gears, reinstall rear locker into...
