To calculate the final drive gear ratio, divide the number of teeth on the driven gear (typically the ring gear in the differential) by the number of teeth on the driving gear (usually the pinion gear). For example, if the ring gear has 40 teeth and the pinion gear has 10 teeth, the final drive gear ratio would be 40:10, which simplifies to 4:1. This ratio indicates how many times the driveshaft must rotate to turn the wheels once, influencing acceleration and top speed.

Is the final drive the same as the final gear?

No, the final drive and final gear are not the same, although they are related. The final drive refers to the entire assembly that transmits power from the transmission to the wheels, often including the differential. The final gear, on the other hand, is a specific gear within that assembly that determines the gear ratio and affects the vehicle's speed and torque.


How can you tell the gear ratio in a rear axle on a Ford F-250?

There should be a small metal tag on the rear diff attached by one of the bolts. if that one is missing then check on the front diff. They have to be the same or you will do massive damage to your truck in 4X4. If they are both missing you're going to have to open the rear end and figure out what you have. You may have heard terms like rear axle ratio or final drive ratio. These refer to the gear ratio in the differential. If the final drive ratio is 4.10, then the ring gear has 4.10 times as many teeth as the input pinion gear. You could count teeth and figure the ratio out.

What are the speed to gear ranges on a 10 speed transmission?

Depends on the gear ratio of the transmission, and the rear end gear ratio of the vehicle. 10 speeds have been available with final drive ratios of .73, .74, .86, .87, and 1 (direct drive).


What is the relationship between driven gear and drive gear?

The ratio is the driven gear divided by the driver gear. This determines the gear ratio.


Can you drive a car with a 305 engine in it on 26 inch rims?

So long as you match the rear end gear ratio accordingly with your transmission final drive ratio and tire size, yes.


What is the formula of a driven gear and a driving gear?

Turn the drive gear 1 complete turn, and count how many times the driven gear turns. For example, to figure out the rear end gear ratio if the drive shaft turns once and the rear turns 3 and a half times you have a 1:3.5 gear ratio. This means the rear wheels turn 3.5 times for each one turn of the drive shaft.
