thanks guys, all running gear is new.but stock, we have a few qualifications when trying to registure a vehicle in the uk from the usa, the truck was unused for 10 odd years...(who knows) so i build/rebuilt it as stock, apart from the leaf springs,(just lubed them up)
i need to double check the tyre size,load rate and report back.

im struggling a little to know how may rpm im doing at the moment, as have no one around with a truck or engines/ notes with or experiance.! whats 2850 rpm sound like!!

im running around at around 45mph hoping im not making to much damage,
whats top limit on rpm for the 235ci?

thanks again
