I read somewhere the stock torque converter used in hemi truck's and CRD's are rated at 2,200 RPM. As for lowering it will help with fuel economy? Possibly as our CRD reaches peak torque around 1,800 RPM. A lower stall will also help reduce heat production during towing if the converter is not locked up. Best way to get optimum fuel economy is to drive conservatively, don't add bumper guards and lift kits which increase wind resistance.
Okay, so if i get a suncoast TC and have the stall speed at 1,800, it will perform its best? For some reason, some days it will take off really good like it already has it, and I barely press on the pedal, and I'm glued to the seat.
But now it's completely gone so now to get to 3rd gear I gotta be over or just at 2k rpm and not just under it like usual and it's sucking so much gas. Also trying to figure out why my trans dip stick pops out witch is being held on by velcro but I take it as a bad sign that the pressure relief valve tube that's dangling under my jeep that's coming from the transmission is bad but idk where to order a new one as the item is Discontinued. Also got a bad pcv valve if that can be the cause of the bad mpg's and bad take off
