lol...not a y/n question...
james, you should be running 30's at least with those gears, 31's preferable. 3.73's would have been ideal for 28" tires.
that said, it won't kill your truck to run that for short bursts...but don't expect to be driving a 500 mile trip on it and keeping up with traffic.
"is it safe to sustain that rpm for a long period of time"
sure seems like a yes or no question to me :smart:
i hate repetitive threads that repeats another repetitive thread that talks about repetitive threads. plus the repetitive posts that are exact repeats from the other repetitive thread.
i had the same dropping of the 15mm in the frame deal. i just left it in there since i had 3 other sockets at the time. about 7 months later when i was pulling wood out of the back of the truck and putting it in the pile, i noticed a little shiny thing in the grass. it was the socket lol. i don't know when/how it came out, but it had surface rust on it. :clapping:
I didn't have any trouble with it, twice, since I forgot to put the tranny pan magnet back in.
lucky guy, everyone i know has fought it, maybe its a midwest rust thing. :dunno:
it must be. i had troubles with both of my MJ's
x2. on another forum I'm on they did this for lift/tire questions.
and the search does work better than it did before. i can usually find something pretty quickly.
