I just bought a 1980 scout that has a crawl ratio of 54.54 and is running 33 tires.
It has the factory close ratio 4 speed and 345 ci motor. The scout has great city drivability with this combo, my question is besides serious rockclimbing will this ratio work for most offroad situations. I would really appreciate some helpful opionions, I need to keep the scout very streetable but I dont want it to fall on its face offroad. Please help a offroad newbie with some insight!:D
