Forgot about that! My moms 83 automatic had 2:21's!!! I think if he's lucky the stick will have 2:79's. Then with the 4-1 first gear in the T5 it should not be that big of an issue. If it has anything less then the 2:79's i'd swap to them. 3:08s would be as far as one owuld want to go with the 4-1 first. I run 3:31's but also have 255/60/15's. -- Mark Price Morgantown, WV 1969 AMC Rambler, 4.0L, EFI, T-5 2004 Grand Cherokee Laredo, 4.7L, Quadratrc II " Chronic Pain Hurts" -------------- Original message ---------------------- From: amxron <amxron@xxxxxxxxxxx> > Check the rear gear ratio it's probably way down in the 2's, those cars were > dead brand new! > > > > amxron > 70 AMX > 70 Hornet > 78 FSJ Wagoneer > Fleet&JEEP Mgr > Orbit/AMC-JEEP 50-1787 > > > _______________________________________________ > Amc-list mailing list > Amc-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > http://splatter.wps.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/amc-list _______________________________________________ Amc-list mailing list Amc-list@xxxxxxxxxxxx http://splatter.wps.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/amc-list
