I have had a Gear Vendors overdrive and a 4:10 rear installed so doing 70 mph is now pretty easy. I also have one of those exterior steel reproduction sun visors installed.
So for those of you with steel sun visors, what's a safe speed limit to keep the unit from tearing off?

I would just periodically check it to make sure it stays tight and secure. | | | | | Joined: Aug 2011 Posts: 12 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Aug 2011 Posts: 12 | Great news!
