2.93 gears?

[Bighouse]

I’m sorry to hear that.

The first step is to admit it.

What

Same here in my 69 roadrunner but I stay off I-40.

What's the speed limit on I-40 in your neighborhood?
I travel I-40 between Cali and Arizona frequently. 70mph in Cali, 75 in az. I don't use my 3.91 or 4.10 geared cars there, lol.

70 mph. I’m taching close to 3500 at that speed with the 355 gear.

I'm running that same setup in the Coronet (8.75 w/3:55). In retrospect, I wish I'd gone with a 3:23... for lower RPMs on the highway.

I have a small pinion carrier. Buying a good used one with a posi or a locker would be a good choice. I am going to need to do axles too. Mine are the tapered ones. I am fleeing the commie state of CA and headed for the hills of NC. I have lots of family there. Looking at some properties with large garages. Found one with a 1700 sqft house and a 1600 sqft garage. Me and the grandson are gonna pull her apart and build her into a decent cruiser/bracket car. Small nitrous hit and some radials. Lots of bonding time with him.

When you get there vote Red please.

When you get there vote Red please.

There’s another color? I bleed red, my cars red and my guns “if I had any” vote red.

I hate to be the one, but... Sure-Grip

Then please don't be THE ONE. It's very childish ..........

I think we all bleed red don't we ???

Just being accurate. Don't be so sensitive.

2.93:1 is a common ratio in the tapered axle rears with a 14 tooth pinion. The later gears used 2.94 with a 16 tooth pinion. The 2.91 is a Ford 9" ratio that requires an 11 tooth pinion.

Can’t be quick enough. Have my kids house and ours up for sale. Family in Marion. That’s the target area.

2.76, 2.93, 3.23, 3.31, 3.55, 3.73, 3.91, 4.10, 4.56, 4.89, 5.17, 5.57.

 

[Gunner1]

3.73s might be a good chioce

 

[Cranky]

2.76, 2.93, 3.23, 3.31, 3.55, 3.73, 3.91, 4.10, 4.56, 4.89, 5.17, 5.57.

2.94........ but what's one digit lol and haven't seen a factory 3.31 gear in all the years I've been messing with them. And isn't a 4.89 a Ferd gear?

 

[Gunner1]

Might be some duplications. I ran 3.55,3.73, and 4.56 in GM rears. Some commonalities might exist.

 

[toolmanmike]

This is what Dr. Diff has available depending on what carrier. Mopar 8 3/4" (8.75) Ring and Pinion for 741, 742, or 489 case

 

[moparmarks]

I just put a 741 2.93SG in my 72 Satellite.

 

[Gunner1]

I am thinking I should look into all that’s necessary to switch axles to non press ones.
