This change is off the table for now. I am now pursuing the fitment of a 3.15 ratio Ford Ranger diff which would bring the standard manual ratios into "acceptable" category.
This implies that the engine and transmission and stick shift arrangement stays original - which I like.
This truck is no longer going to do the kind of work it was meant to do, so now it has to be a relaxed cruiser.
