Assuming a diameter of 26.4 inches for a P225x70/14 tire

https://www.differentials.com/techni...io-calculator/

I get 3000 engine rpm at 60 mph for a 3.73 ratio;

3300 engine rpm at 60 mph for a 4.10 ratio.

I suspect that does not comprehend auto trans converter slip, etc.

What kind of rear end? That will affect our library of available discreet rear axle ratios to choose from.
