What about the guys that run an overdrive? I guess that slows the engine, trans and t case slowed down enough to safely ride at 70 mph.

Sorry folks. It wont happen again.

Chart here Gear Vendors Under/Overdrive Chevrolet/GMC 4-Wheel Drive 3-Speed Automatic.

I might try that to see if I get another 200 lb payload capacity. I know when I put racing stripes on my Camaro it made it go faster. No reason why the data plate thing wont work.

Thanks. I didn't send him a PM. I used the e-mail address that was provided. I'll try a PM.

Thanks, I get it now.

Can you elaborate a little please? I may go down this route soon and would like to be as informed as possible before I do. Thank You.
