Default Gear ratios on a manual transmission.

I have a manual transmission. I put 33" tires on. I have an aev procal. Does adjusting gear ratios do anything on a manual? Should I if I could?

Just adjusting the ratios in the Pro Cal would be a bad thing if you do not actually replace the gears.

I have a manual '09 with 35''s and gears. Procal wouldn't let me set the gears. I assume it knows it's not automatic. Just set the tire size and you're done.

Haven't heard of that. Anyone else with a manual run into the same thing?

on a manual jeep the procal will let you set the axle ratio and tire size you have. net result is the speedo is corrected.
