40's on a 60

drtstreet · 06-27-08, 04:07 PM

Inquiring minds are wondering... How driveable, useable would a 60 with 40's on it be? I'm looking to only mod my 60 once. I know its a long shot for that to happen but I'm just seeing what would be needed.

i took brokenparts advice on tires and went with the irok's in a 39.5 as well, with 4.88 gears, longfields and poly performance rear shafts of course.

It is still very driveable, but for a daily driver not so practical, but definately doable. No regrets here, just a few bugs to work out.
