·What RPM\'s Should I....
I will very shortly be taking a long trip, nonstop from FL to DE, in my Ram, listed below. Going north will be towing an empty flatbed trailer, about 2,000 pounds. Coming back south will be with a Jeep on that trailer. I have already ruled out Overdrive in either direction. MY only problem is, i have the factory 3.92s in my axles, and my 360 is turning 2000RPMs at only 55 mph. What RPM range should i be operating in? I have towed with this truck before, just not that much weight. It IS rated for 7,800 pounds. Please helpme before i break something!!! BTW, i've got almost 36,000 miles on it. Thanks in advance,
