FX-16 gear ratio/manual trans

Hi, Was wondering if anybody has an idea on how to get more gear ratio for lower highway cruising rpm....(not the bigger front tire idea) I have an 87 FX-16, manual trans. I know this 4AG can handle more rear gear, but it's geared for crawling along at 55 mph back in the 80's..... Thanks

Hi, Looking for a Right Door or window mech. for Right Door for 1987 AE82 FX-16. I really just need the channel that the door glass fastens to, because my tabs on my channel that attach to the crank mech. have rotted off, so my window is always up now. Thanks sm_ewr@hotmail.com
