    M1008/1028 optimal tire sizes to offset 4.56 gearing

    When you swap out a 700 in place of a 400 (both on the 208 tcase), you dont have to drill anything. It is a TOTAL bolt in swap (provided you have the tcase and pedastal from the 700r4). Makes it really easy!

    RE: Re: RE: Re: RE: Re: RE: M1008/1028 optimal tire sizes to Well, the good 89 might work just fine with a new Torque Converter, and Governer.... Otherwise, my next choice is the bad 89... stay FAR away from the 83.
