Be aware...... if you increase the tire size and change the distance traveled per rotation.. up or down.. you will have to reset the speedometer. An accurate speedo is required for the E4OD trans operation, for a manual it would be just a convenience.

Also how much weight, and what terrain you usually run in as well as what gear is in the rear axle will all come into play to answer that question.

What RPM are you running at 60 MPH in overdrive now?
