working diff ratio???

Hi all, think Iam missing something with working out my diff ratio on my english/live axle....

I am getting 2 rotations of the prob to 1 on the wheel giving a 2:1 ratio

What I am I missing....


Thanks

Jools

If one wheel is stationary and only the other rotates, you will get half the actual ratio.

You need to jack up both wheels, rotate both of them exactly 1 revolution, and count the number of turns of the prop. You can do it with one wheel on the ground but you need to double the answer.
