Top Speed of a 1993 ford ranger splash

you see, if you get big enough tires (54s) then lower the gear ratio to like 3.23 or something, you can trick the truck into thinking your only doin 90 but you'll be doing like 150+!

Until the tires fall apart and the driveline eats itself.

you would need someone to get you going, then you would need a realllllly long hill.

If the speed limiter is removed on a stock motor and you had a straight / flat stretch of *legal road to do this*.. it would be drag limited at about 125-130mph. The truck would get up to 110 pretty strong and then taper off as speed increases.

You're right, I forgot to ask what trans, R & P ratio and tire radius.
