orrr, you could just go ahead and trade your 33's plus some cash for some used 35's..and call it good

i drove my '86 with 31's and 4.10's ALLLL the time, i just memorized how fast I'M ACTUALLY going, instead of what the speedo says..

have someone drive beside you and tell ya how fast you are going at a given speed.

i actually had a police officer (off duty deputy sheriff) help me with mine

Just plug in your numbers and stock numbers. Then you can figure out how off it is at different speeds.
As you go faster it gets further off. So its not as simple as 5mph off across the board.
