| Hi Guys..
| 
| I was hunting around for a method of calculating what gear ratio a diff has
| by testing it..
| 
| I know i've seen this discussed before... But if anyone could either explain
| how it is done or send me a url that would appreciated...
| 
| As I recall there was a formula for counting the rotations of the drive
| shaft against the number of rotations of a wheel if you picked up one side..
| any hints?
| 
| Thanks...
| Scott.
Hi Scott,

==> Here is a pretty good page that Brian has with differential information:
http://www.pcisys.net/~brianc/4x4/GearingConversions.html
==> Here is another "conversion" / gear ratio page:
