Mine is a converted from 3 on tree to 4 on floor with granny gear.

Its a 302 engine, perhaps slightly improved by previous owner. Still, when I start to accelerate from stop in first, second or even third gears in 2wd never mind 4H or 4l, I peel out (or can easily).\

Anyone else have this issue?

Never mind downshifting, I think I leave a patch of rubber for that too.

yeah I know what you mean. Mine dont make that squealing noise. The 37's just go up in smoke and make a nice chirp noise when it hooks up. mine is an automatic so I dont have to deal with the clutch. Your clutch may be too tight. A tight clutch will spin the tires every time. You may need a pint of friction modifier.

Your foot is too big for your skinny pedal. Trade for little girl foot, that should do it.

Hey.. some people just can't handle driving certain kind of vehicles... it's alright, nothing to be ashamed about..... you just might need to trade it in for a chevette....

That squel is annoying. Not as annoying as the AC/DC, but annoying.
