Re: 67 4:11 gear change

What it really comes down to is...."You can't". There is no "cheap way" to change gears. The only feasible way is to swap the entire housing from another truck, with the gear ratio you want. This is not necessarily "easy" either, finding one is the hard part.

Installing gears is one of those things that is far more involed than it "looks". It requires precision, experience, and some special tools. It is even worse with used gears, most professionals will not even do it.

The great thing about being a pessimist is that you are either pleasantly surprised or right.
