Hi all
This may be a dumb question but...is it possible to calculate the gear ratio in the diff by rotating the wheel a full turn and counting the number of revolutions the drive shaft turns through??? Or any other way you could suggest - my speedo reads quite fast and I need the ratio to order the correct drive wheel for the end of the speedo cable. Any help would be gratefully received.
Cheers

David

Thank link is dead, so to answer the question, YES, one turn if there is a posi in it. If not a posi, 2 full turns with the other tire still on the ground. Counting the driveshaft revs.

Hey DL, I am in Pukekohe and will be somewhere near Whangarei, Matapouri, Hukeranui late this week. Email me at ntgolden.xtra.co.nz or phone 092388643. Also if NZ440R/T reads this much the same as well. I will be at the V8 races at Pukekohe this coming weekend.
