Where do you find the axle ratio on a 1990 jeep?
There are four ways to find a ratio.
1 A dealer can normally tell from the vin number.
2 There are normally tags or labels on the axle that have part number, gear ratio, and fluid requirement info.
3 You can count how many times you have to turn the driveshaft to get one complete turn of the tires.
4 You can divide the number of teeth on the ring gear and divide by number of teeth on the pinion.
Yes quite possibly.
Back in the seventies when I worked for a Fiat dealership
we would road test a front wheel drive Fiat for wheel bearing problems
If the noise appeared to come from the right
we would change the left bearing.
It's not unusual for sounds to carry across a vehicle.
How do you change the front axle seal on a 2003 dodge 2500 4x4?
hi if your mechanical ability is high then go and buy a haynes manual for your truck,this is not a simple job,you will be removeing brake,seperating front end parts.this should be looked at by someone that is a pro.
What is the stock gear ratio on 63 c-20 Chevy?
There are three ways. 1 A dealer can normally tell from the vin number. 2 There are normally tags or labels on the axle that have part number, gear ratio, and fluid requirement info. 3 You can count how many times you have to turn the driveshft to get one complete turn of the tires.
1991 Mazda Protege DX has linkage but won't shift into gear it is an automatic what is wrong?
could be a bad radiator i know it sounds odd but the the trany fluid is pumped through the radiator or u could just be leakin fluid check it out and check the radiator
How do you fix 2003 expedition rear differential pinion seal leak?
remove rear drive shaft. remove pinion yolk from front of diff.remove oinion seal replace with new one. replace pinion yolk, replace driveshaft,.. dhceck ujoints of drive shaft while out, its a good time to replace them
Rear axle gear ratio for e 350 motorhome chassis?
There are four ways to find a ratio.
1 A dealer can normally tell from the vin number.
2 There are normally tags or labels on the axle that have part number, gear ratio, and fluid requirement
info.
3 You can count how many times you have to turn the driveshaft to get one complete turn of the tires.
4 You can divide the number of teeth on the ring gear and divide by number of teeth on the pinion.
How do you determine the front differential gear ratio?
It will be the same as the rear axle. Or take the VIN to the dealer, it is coded into the VIN number.
Tire noises like a warping sound are a result of it being out of round. This happens when the tire is unbalanced or the front end is out of alignment.
Is a little in and out movement on the rear axle normal?
That depends on the type of axle and which part you are grabbing. The axle shaft on a light duty will have some in and out.
What rear end came stock the 1986 GMC S15?
The 1986 General Motors/GMC S15 PU had a live (Salisbury type) rear differential. The size was 7.5 inch, 26 spline and offered in multiple gear ratios (including 3.08 and 3.42).
Whats the stock gear ratio on the front and rear axles of an 87' Toyota 4x4 pick up?
the front should be wahever the back is. count them on the ring gear then count the pinoin and devide that and it will give you the gear ratio
How often do you change Differential fluid for 2004 Jeep Liberty?
Refer to owners manual, it will give you mileage frames on when to change fluids.
Can a 2001 minivan transmission go into a 1997 Chevy Silverado truck?
Most Minivans are front wheel drive and a 97 Chevy Silverado's are rear wheel drive, you do the math.
it is a transmission .between the motor and driveshart
What is the difference between density gradient and differential centrifugation?
Differential centrifugation: The solution (eg sucrose) is uniform throughout the test tube. You separate organelles based on their size and density.
Density gradient centrifugation: There is a gradient of concentration of solution throughout the test tube. The concentration of sucrose is minimal at the top of the tube and maximal at the bottom of the tube. This type of centrifugation separates organelles by density only.
What is the purpose of the rear differential in a vehicle?
transfer torque power from drive shaft to the rear axels
How do different Differential gear ratios affect top speed?
Lower differential gear ratios, such as a 4.11 for example will help you get up to speed sooner in all gears, but your top speed will be limited vs a differential gear ratio of 3.08. In other words more torque less speed, less torque more speed. 4.11 for example means that your drive shaft from the transmission to the rear end spinns 4 times for every 1 time your tire does one complete rotation. If the rear end gear ratio was 3.08 instead of 4.11, then your drive shaft would rotate 3 times for every 1 time the tire did one complete rotation. So the engine would rev less in the final gear at the same speed, but there would be less torque. The weight of your vehicle, the amount of torque and horsepower your engine puts out and the type of transmission and the amount and type of gears it has also determines a lot.
What will happen when a universal joint goes out?
At first it will just squeak. Then as it wears it will vibrate the vehicle and make louder noises. It will eventually cause the driveshaft to fall off and probably do damage to the truck in the process.
How can you tell if the fuel pump or transmission is going out on an automatic car?
Bad fuel pump will cause the engine to stall or not start at all. A bad automatic transmission will cause the vehicle to jerk and not run smoothly.
