84 bronco 2 top speed 40-45mph????
Posted: Sat Feb 06, 2010 10:04 am
For some reason my truck won't go faster than 40-45mph.I can't figure it out.The info on the truck is
1.84 4x4
2.5spd manual
3.Has 31 inch tires
4.new cat
5.Rebuilt Carb (it had a hesitation like it was choking it self out or something but it's fine now)
6.Complete tune up
When i bought the truck it had the stock rims and tires and it drove fine then it went 60-65 ok.So after the carb was rebuilt it runs better but did not improve max speed.It does sound like it winds through gears like it's quickly hitting high rpms way before it should.So with that i've been told it might be the gearing in the trans or rear axle because of the 31 inch tires.If thats true then whats the best result to fix this problem.I thought maybe it's the clutch but theres no sign of it being the problem besides the winding up and the rpms.Well anyway any suggestions or help will be great.Thanks
P.s.if you need anymore info let me no and There is know hesitation or anything the truck starts up and runs fine.
