I normally do 60-80 in mine and depends on free traffic I will run it up to 90 in some areas occasionally. But by then the wife is looking at me and telling me to slow down.

what tires are you running?

i think 4.88 would be good, you might lose to much top end in the high fives

OP i'd go 4.56's

4.88 is the lowest gear I know of for the 9 1/4 rear. 4.56 for 8" front. If you swap in a dana 60 then the options are greater (as low as 7.17)
