Mark, et al.

Hi, i'm new to the list so here is my first small contribution.

i have an 82 westy Diesel that is now a TD thanks to jetta TD that

rolled over one to many times.  after the added power i needed the gear

change also.  my cheap fix was larger wheels off of a jeep wrangler.

looked good, small price to pay at local salvage yard.  should not be

too hard to find. super fit.  it now cruises at 65 without to much noise

from the back.  also, clearance is an added bonus when camping.

Questions:
How fast will your Westy D go now, will it run easily at 70 MPH. Volks drive very fast down here in Texas, 70 MPH is the baseline now on the freeways. I am hoping to be able to cruise easily at 65, but to have the gearing to be able to pass with authority, and cruise easily at 70 MPH if needed.
