- 1998 Mountaineer
I'm having the complete drivetrain from a 1998 Mountaineer transplanted into my 2002 Sport Trac.
The new combo will have 3.73 gears and 245/75 tires in place of the original 255/70's on the stock aluminum wheels. Got the nearly new tires for $200 to replace the worn out 255/70's. The 5.0 has plenty of power so it shouldn't have a problem with the bigger tires.
How far off, faster or slower, will the speedometer be? It already read faster than real speed in the Mountaineer.
How do I adjust it? I have a GPS to tell how fast it's actually moving.
