Hi Everyone!
Very new to the early bronco scene. I recently purchased a 66. Below is what was told to me by the old owner.
It has the original 6 cylinder engine. 3 speed manual transmission with new James Duff floor shifter and new clutch. Dana 20 gear drive transfer case. Dana 30 posi front end and a posi ford 9 inch rear end. Not sure the gear ratio. 4:11 or lower. Also has front and rear axle trusses. It has a 3 1/2 inch lift, new shocks and bushings.
My question is: When getting up to 55 mph is seems to be revving real high (Like it has reached it's max speed) and feel like I'm pushing her limits. Is this because of the trans or is this an engine issue? Can this be fixed? Any help would be great.
