Im looking at my honda manual here at the gear ratios for the 4wd tranny and it goes SL through Reverse then has one that says reduction ratio, is the reduction ratio the final drive? and how do you figure the ratio is it (# teeth of gear)/(# teeth of final drive) or vise versa thanks

 

I think that is the final drive to the transfer case, since it has a separate ring and pinion gear for that. it gears it down some and then gears it down more in the rear diff. kind of a wierd setup, but it works.

 

yeah i think thats it i was reading through it more throughly and what you said seems about right. thanks
