    I'm not a big guy, just lots of spirit.

    Isn't there more power loss with a 13 compared to 10? Thought I read 13's had more moving parts.
    I've never driven a 13.

    You better do your research first. I replaced a 10 speed Spicer in 9400 IHC. That Spicer was about 30% over drive. Thank about the only Fullers with that are a RTLO15710C , which I thank I used, or maybe a Super 10. A 13 or 18 would slow you down a good bit. Had to cut the driveshaft, buy a 1760 yoke for the Fuller and get a different shift lever.
    Think long and work short.

    Yea and weigh more. Yet properly driven will achieve better economy. It can offset eachother.

    Thanks for admitting it. We were having a technical convo. Till you added your less than intelligent opinion which added zero value to it.
