HOrnbrod Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 Not necessarily. The only positive way is to pull the cover and count the teeth of the R & P gears, then divide the number of ring teeth by the number of pinion teeth. Tags can sometimes lie.

AW-100 Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 Yeah, an other positive way is to get the CAD to work, and try to drive in 4low... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AW-100 Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 New Q: How do you change the ratio of an axle? Is it enough to just pull out the driveshafts, yank out the differential and replace it with the new one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 as nice as that would be, sadly no. gears need to be "set up" to run properly (a quick search for that should give you the details). it's not cheap, and not really good for beginners to tackle. one of the few things that I will happily leave to the pros. But that's not to say that i won't go out of my way to avoid paying for it. :D I prefer junkyard axles with the gears already in them. way cheaper and way easier. :) (unless you're looking for a ratio that doesn't exist out there) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
