hey guys, i have a 93 sierra with 2" lift, 2" extended shackles. it has the standard 1.3l in it and im running 31"x10.5"x15" AT/z with no reduction gears. when on the motor way it is maxed out at around 85km/h in 4th gear go to put it into 5th and drop back too about 70km/h and cant get anything more outta it. why would this be so? any help would be great. cheers.

You've answered your own question ...... You have 31" tyres and no reduction gears to compensate for it.

85km/hr on the speedo, running 31s is actually 100km/hr for starters... so take that into account.

As for why thats as quick as it'll go, you answered your own question when you said you didnt have reduction gears =)

i don't go by my speedo because i know that its out i take my speed by my natsav that i have. and yeah i did think that it was because i have no reduction gears. what reduction gears would be recommended? and a good place to pick them up from?

4.9, 5.14 or 6.5 will do. Depending on your driving.
