[QUOTE="Todd Z, post: 752538, member: 58941"] Yardsale, I think your still looking at it backwards.... The change you made DOES not spin the tires or the rear Ring gear at any different RPM... IF the VSS was on the tranny then you will see a MPH change on the speedo on the truck... IF the VSS is in the rear you will NOT see a MPH change on the speedo... It changes the speed of the drive shaft and pinion gear, which changes the rpm of the transmission and motor... Thats why you could put 5:56 in your truck and the speedo will still read correct.... Just the engine will be doing 5,000 rpm at 60 !!!!..... I think we are thinking the same as the speedo goes, But I think the reason is back wards.. Todd Z [/QUOTE]
