ZF Wheels Case Study
back to case studies
Troy,

The ZF wheels ended up working great for my rig. I ran her a little easier all summer kind of experimenting with the efficiency at different RPMs and found that I could still maintain a nice cruise of 27-28 and only burn 54 gph at 1750 or so. When I bumped her up to a 30kt cruise she was burning around 60 at 1850. That is about 3 or 4 gallons less than she burned at 1900 to get the same speed before.

I am not sure if the tubes help or not but the whole package of shaft tubes and those wheels is really smooth and we are burning less fuel and going faster with less turns throughout the efficient range of our cruise. She trolls nice too...

Thanks for getting me rigged up right..........JJ

Sincerely,
Jeff James
