mkay, i was wondering what the ratios were for a 77 luv 4 speed tranny, a 84 pup 4 speed, and a 5 speed. the 77 luv tranny i put in the pup has the crappiest 1st gear, and i dont like it at all.

if i could get some info on the ratios, it would be great.

it doesnt look like the 77 tranny is much higher geared in first than the pup. did it really dog it that much?!?

man the difference is like day and night. i used to be able to do a pretty good burnout on dry pavement with the old tranny, but now it has a hell of a hard time just getting the truck movin. itll work for now, but id like to have my old ratios, cuz im gonna be injecting and turboing the pup.

I know the 80 4speed in my LUV and the 86 5speed in my trooper are geared the same (as per the shop manuals)

I guess the 4x4's had different ratios from the 2wd, cause i know that my parent's '88 Trooper has the same gears as my Luv

so do you think that the 89 pup 5 speed &rear end is a good deal and i am putting it all in a 75 that has a g180 with a weber

You could do burn outs?
