Hi, I'm new here. I recently purchased an '84 sunrader with the 4 speed manual transmission. I've yet to find anybody talking about re-gearing the differentials with the 4 speed manuals. Acceleration from a stop, with the stock 4.10's, is pretty bad. Folks in Denver aren't very accommodating for the slower traffic. I've thought about 4.56's but am now wondering if I should go to 4.88's.
Backstory: I once had an '86 4Runner that I swapped in a 7MGE Supra motor (inline 6) and at first 4.88 gears/33" tires. With that 5 speed, and 6 cylinder engine, 4.88's made the first four gears useless. I then switched to 4.56's and it was perfect. . I'm trying to equate that to my heavy and under-powered sunrader.
Any suggestions?
Greg
