toast said:Would telling you that I plan on a re-gear make you feel better???
stock gearing and a 5 spd is OK with an auto tranny i would gear a little lower...that way the trans does not work so hard...for now it is ok...in the future. not so muchtkjeeper said:Guys I do have a tranny cooler and I understand that it's not ideal to run 33s on stock gearing but is it really causing that much damage? I believe its better for trail running but my 33s are pretty streety and the tranny is not shifting in and out of od. I plan on the gear change but if you folks really think it is causing serious "damage", I trust this forum. I don't want opinions tho, I would like facts. Tranny/engine experts to explain exactly why. I am probably gonna change back to the 31's for the summer just to be safe but I really would like some solid feedback on this. Thanks guys.

BRADFORDXJ said:Not so sure about that one, I had a 93 5spd with 31's and stck gears...gutless and 5th gear was useless, I now have a 96 auto with 31's and is much better. I get loose without trying on dry pavement still not what I want but night and day difference between the 5spd.
