    Thnx for the breakdown, I'm exploring my 2011 Supercharged Jaguar XF. Was breaking down the specs as I get to know it and my first gear showed 4.17 , 2.34 , 1.52 on a chart. So I came here for a better understanding. She's aggressive 470 hp with 424 lb torque. This is gonna be fun!

    I owned a 91 Mustang 5.0 LX hatchback from 95 to 05. The car had the T-5 World Class transmission and 2.73:1 ring and pinions. It gave me as much as 30 mpg on the highway under optimal conditions but because the engine and exhaust system was modified would breath better than stock. I could put the car in 4th gear and rev the engine to 5800 rpm and the car would do a lidar verified speed of 158 Mph higher than the 140 speedo. Put it in 5th and the car slowed down to about 137 Mph.

    I'm gonna have to think about this for a while lol. I'm looking to build a Superlite SLC with a Audi 5.2l v10 and some sort of straight cut gearing for high performance low gears maybe even high gears. Id like the engine to be making somewhere around 500 to 560 hp, nothing crazy just fun.

    Hello ! Thanks for all the info you talk about on your channel. I want to regear my TRD 2016 Tacoma, but I don't have any local place I can trust to conduct a professional job. My friend advised me I could buy a front and rear diffs complete with the ratios I want. I would remove and install the diffs in my Taco. Then I would send back my diffs for a core credit? Any direction would greatly appreciated, thank you.

    I have a 68 Camaro making about 500 horsepower NA I plan on putting on a pro charger soon my 0 to 40 is very nice however the car begins to slow down after that like it’s running out. I bought the car with posi and I’m assuming 4.11 what would be gear for a 700r4 Camaro with 18 inch wheels. 600 horsepower

    Was sup bro, I have an 2007 crown Victoria P71 4.6L V8. I think I have 3.27’s but I wanna get more power of my car or at least make it faster at the tires. The weight of the car is heavy but she can go at lower RPMS but at higher RPMS I have to hit the gas the. She revs. Idk if I should go with 3.73’s or 4.10’s. Here a lot of the lose top end power on 4:10’s? I kinda want the best of both worlds what would you suggest? I have exhaust upgrade with K&N stock & a little tune on it. Maybe 4:10’s for faster speeds or 3.73’s for best of both worlds.

    I just bought a 2005 silverado 1500 2wd 5.3 from the first owner , the paper work shows it has the 3.73. as a package option, a heavy duty suspension, GVW rating is 6,800 lbs. the truck is lifted 6 inches. does this means that the truck is more for towing than for crusing ? I just want to understand what I have Im new on this gear ratio thing...LOL

    • @fr3k5h0w
      @fr3k5h0w หลายเดือนก่อน

      Usually tow rigs are geared lower 3.73 gears are in-between. Lower the gear the more torque you spread to the wheels and fuel economy of course. Lol 9 months later

    My question is what about 2.73 gears? What's the benefits of that other then gas mileage?

    • @Begimorst1
      @Begimorst1 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Strength, numerically low ratios spread the torque over more gear teeth. I run a 3.31:1 in my 1985 Grand Wagoneer, and it lifts the left front tire. It is a brick pushing a lot of wind so I get to the end in 14 seconds! Won't break anything and can drive it everywhere.
      Ford 9" has a great hypoid offset so that numerically higher ratios look like a worm gear solving the tooth contact issue of many other ring gear designs.

      Now 3.31:1 that's a good ratio for 60 to 70 mph on the highway. Some hills ok.

    3.73's ,4.11's are only good for 1/8 mile. After a quarter mile there is no way they will keep up with a 3.25. You will see nothing but tail lights, and won't see anything afer a 1/2 mile.

      ​@hudsondonnell444 Nah dawg, drag racing is sick. It's the most basic form of racing but it's so hype just seeing those beautiful machines take off from standstill down the strip, and there is no other motorsport with better wheelies!

    • @gearfxdriveline7047
      @gearfxdriveline7047  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      If you plan to do a lot of towing, then a 4.56 would probably be your best bet. If not, then 4.11 should suit you just fine.
