^And this is my exactly why I switched to the 2.3L. Yes, there are other factors at play. But the main issue I was concerned with was torque rating. If anything, I hope you’re right, and the transmission can handle way more than it’s rated. But I was just outlining what made my decision easier.Let’s compare the 10R60 with 2.7 to the *Gold standard* in this segment, the 392 Wrangler with the 8HP75. We’re going to use percentages because IMO that is a more accurate way to go about things.
470 Torque in the Wrangler with a transmission that has a torque rating of 553 Ft-Lbs puts the wrangler at 85% capacity.
415 Torque in the Bronco with a transmission that has a torque rating of 443 Ft-LBS puts it at 94% capacity.
Does that seem high? Sure.
