Those 9 speeds are about useless for pulling anything of actual weight unless you've got 400 plus to run it. Even then I think they should keep them on a truck 80,000 and under. Buddy had a couple 9 speeds as his yard trucks or hay duty trucks. I had the top end of his 13 speed Pete apart at the time, and he wondered if I would pull a load of wheat to the elevator for him, with one of his hay trucks. This thing had a 350 Cummins in it, 9 speed, and a pretty tall rear end ratio. The lead loaded with wheat wasn't real heavy, I think I went over the scales at 120,000, but it sure worked that poor little truck to death getting it there. Couldn't run it in 9th unless you were going downhill. 9 speeds belong in straight trucks and light freight trucks in my opinion.
