7" Diff with 3.14 ratio

Perfect for the right engine running the right wheels/tyres!

 

Sorry to hijack your thread Joachim, but I feel it's worthwhile pointing this out to others (like myself) who know very little about diff ratio's and the effect they have on performance.

 

I recently spent £700 on a Freelander Diff and Quaife ATB after someone who should know better told me that the 3.21 ratio was 'perfect for BECs'.

 

Turns out that I would have had to be doing over 160mph with 13" wheels to make reasonable use of 6th gear!

 

I ended up having to sell the kit I bought at a loss of a couple of hundred quid... ouch!
