Re: AW4 trans / XJ gears
That is a cut and paste from the '01 XJ manual.

Re: AW4 trans / XJ gears
Do the math:
ratio = (rpm * tire_diameter) / (mph * 336)
Assuming your tire diameter is 29" (235/75R15) and you turn 2000 rpm @
65 mph, your final ratio is 2.66. Divide that by your 0.753 OD ratio,
and you get 3.53 diff ratio. You have 3.55 gears.
