AW4 trans / XJ gears
Jeep in question is 91 Cherokee Laredo 4.0 with 4spd automatic and
selec-trac trans. I usually run it in 2hi, transmission in the overdrive
position (D). Running between 65-70mph, the tach reads 2000-2100rpms. Seems
a little low to me. Drop it to 3rd gear, it reads about 3000rpms. Is this
consistent with the 4spd auto and 3.55's? I'm concerned I might have
2.something gearing. What are the gear ratios of the AW-4 (I'm guessing I
have the AW4) trans?
Thanks,
Carl

All the overdrives I've used drop RPM by about a grand.

Re: AW4 trans / XJ gears
I don't have the AW4 transmission in my WJ but with 3.55 gears I run 71-72
mph at 2000 rpm in 4th (overdrive).
