I'm in 3rd gear by about 35 mph with my manual 3 spd transmission. Is there anyway I can change the gears so i'm not changing gears so quickly?
D.Hearne said:You'd have to have an extremely low rear gear to be in 3rd by 35mph. Something like 4.11's to do that. Yes you can change the rear ratio. What rear does it have? 8" or 9"?
tjm73 said:What rpm are you shifting at? Even with 4.11's you shouldn't be in 3rd by 35 mph.
tjm73 said:He has a 3 speed manual transmission, so he controls when it shifts into high gear.

But right now the 7 inch is in there, but I have an 8 inch ready to go in after I get it painted...i dont really wanna lose my acceleration, so if i have to deal with it its fine. I was just wondering if i could change it thats all
