Fire dept has a M 1028 Chevy dually grass truck. Works pretty good except
it's geared way to low and top speed seems to be about 55 mph. Speedometer
don't work on the Chevy but the XM 813 keeps up to it just fine. Is there a
way to get higher gearing for it or a better top speed with out spending a
fortune? Change the transfer case? what’s top speed of the M 1008? Other
military Chevy’s that parts could be swapped to go faster? Top speed is
irritating but the real concern is the very high rpm’s the engine has to go
to get to that speed. Thanks, Adam Suess
