Awesome, thanks! I'll find what I need to do when the time comes. Doesn't increasing the tire size increase mileage on these trucks to a point?

Yes, increasing the rear tire diameter decreases the engine rpm for a given speed. This chart helps to visually show the impact.

Great info, John, I'm sure you have lots of good info like this that can help us here too!

Jeannie, could this chart be moved to a more useful thread?

IHC light duty 4 x 4's 1969 - 1975 used a TC143 single speed transfer case. the optional 2 speed t/c was a NP 205 which was an independent right side drop transfer case (passenger side). Dodge in those years also used an independent
NP 205 right side drop T/C; the only difference was the u-joint flanges(yokes)
