Subject:      Silly idea?
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1

Hi Volks, I may have another silly idea. I am planning on having my diesel
ratio transaxle rebuilt with a 1st and second ratio change to a 4.13 and
2.25 if my memory is correct to aide pulling my small fishing boat out of
the water. My silly idea is that with 215/75/15 bfg all terrains matched to
my diesel ratio transaxle is about the same as my dk transaxle with my
195/75/14. I was thinking that when I'm bringing the boat camping I will
run the 14" wheel package to take some load off the engine/transaxle  and
when I am not bringing the boat Ill use the big wheel package to gain some
hwy speed? It's so crazy, it just might work??
