whats up with my gears?
I did a search for trying to find out what gears i have and found out how. But i must have done something wrong b/c i marked the drive-shaft and turned the wheel and when the tire had gone around once the drive-shaft only went around twice. What does that mean? maybe i did it wrong , i dk. Any input would be good input. thanks

If it's from the factory it should be on the sticker inside the driver's side door jam.
There are coresponding letters. See if any of these are on your door.
2:73:1 Ratio 8M
3.08:1 Ratio YZ
3.27:1 Ratio 5E
3.55:1 Ratio 2K
3.73:1 Ratio 6W

youre supposed to turn thw WHEEL 1 time and how ever many turns the shaft makes in that 1 turn is how you figure it out. like if you have 3:73 it will turn 3 and 3/4 of a turn with one complete wheel turn. 3:08 gears will make about 3 turns with one turn of the wheel. 3:55=3 1/2 turns, 2:73= 2 3/4 turns.
