  • should I?

    In the near future, I'm going to purchase the poly kit. I have a rear end from an 84t and I'm seriously considering changing from the 3.70 rear end to the 2.54 rear end for the reason that I take a LOT of road trips and it might help me in the fuel economy dept on the highway.
    Should I?
    Funny stories!

    did you mean the 3.54 rear end? i think only the 50thAE had those!
    either way, i would do it if i had the rear end!

      as it was said before, I'm looking to go taller. not so much for the fuel economy, though it will be nice, but for reliability. I don't exactly like having my engine screaming at 4k rpm at 100 mph when going that fast for literaly hours on end when i take my road trips.

        I know the feeling. The highways up here where I just moved are straight and flat... and usually cop-free. I keep finding myself wishing for a 6th gear.

                              Well itstead of make the gears shorter in a six speed.I was think more of a 5 speed plus a 100+ mph cruiser gear some like 2.5k at 100.
