Default Gear ratios & highway speed
Ok - I know I'm going to get crucified for this but here goes!

I'm planning a massive road trip in my C8AX in 2013. A trip of some 15,000 klm around Australia fund raising for Legacy.

To that end, can anyone suggest a change in either gear or diff ratios that will give us better highway cruising speed, something more suitable in todays world?

Of course I will keep all original equipment so I can to return to original specs once the trip is over.

Any information greatly appreciated.

Cheers

Pete
