Rear End
Mike,

Could I have a little more information? Any Pictures? I have watched the
shop that does my work install Telma retarders, aux transmissions, etc., so
they could do the work. I was just trying to figure how things would fit
together under the bus.

That's why I went with an auxiliary OD trans.

I can see one possible drawback in changing the rear end ratio. Coming out
of Palo Duro
Canyon with my 82 FC (10% grade as I recall), was quite a pull. 1st gear the
whole way and
down to about 1850rpms. With a higher gear ratio (I think I have the 5.29)
that pull might
have become touch and go.
