- About Cummins High Output engine [*6.7L cummins - [10]
- 3.42 axle ratio Dually RFE starts at 17k lb. Aisin diesel dually 3.42 starts at 20k lb. Thus, the gear ratio is the most important determinant if we are concerned about pull. SRW version 4x4 Aisin starts at 17k.
- Aisin and RFE at low gear ratio SRW are both at 17k pull. [11]
- Dually 4x4 RFE at high ratio exceeds pull of HO + Aisin at low gear ratio (21k vs 20k)
- For 25 k range need HO + mid-gear ratio, and 30k is HO + high gear ratio.
- 17, 19, and 21k lb loads respectively for 3.43, 3.73, and 4.1 gear ratios for duallies with RFE.
- 20, 25, 30k lb loads for the same with Aisin
- Aisin single wheel is 17k. Single wheel Aisin is same as single wheel RFE.
- Thus, single wheel Aisin is same as same ratio RFE dually.
Remote Buying
Successful purchase may depend on:
- Reputation of car dealership or seller - Do they have transparent documentation already, such as third party car report such as Carfax? What is their online rating? BBB rating? Is their reputation validated when talking to them? Does the dealership have a service shop to make changes, such as adding a 37000 lb gooseneck hitch?
- 3rd party certification of product - Carfax, other reports for accidents, maintenance history. What are these?
