Re: [AMC-List] New look at an old car

["Jim Blair" <carnuck@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

The Mexican 282 I had would've LOVED an O/D with the 2.72 gears and 
235/75/15 tires in my '83 Cherokee 4 dr (last of the full size Cherokees 
before they became Grand Wagoneers) Especially since I traveled to Canada 
and back from Seattle practically every weekend twice. (it would cruise at 
80 but the motor was screaming pretty loud in protest)

2.73 might be a bit much for a three speed 195.6 to pull
starting off. I
don't recall what the stock rear gearing was, will have to
check. A four
or five speed with a lower first would work well, but 2.73
wouldn't do
with an OD. My 63 American with auto had 3.15 gears stock, 3.31
as the
performance gears (which I had). A 3.08 might be a better
choice,
depending on the first gear ratio in the T-14.
