With the recent interest in gear ratios and tire sizes -
I have placed my gear calculator application back out on
the web. This calculator produces RPM tables based on
tire size and MPH. The user inputs transmission, transfer
case, differential, and/or overdrive gears - either manually
or from those listed. Then an RPM table is spit out for
each final drive ratio. So with a typical four speed tranny
and two speed transfer case - eight tables will be generated.
One table for each final drive.
I have found this application useful for determining how
tire size changes will impact RPM. Just slide across the
X axis to see how tire size bumps the RPM for a selected
road speed. Sorry - only MPH road speed at this time.
I do need some assistance though - I can't find my book
listing the Series II, IIA, and III transmission gears.
I would like to add these to my application - anyone have
these numbers handy? I can't find them on the web.
One note. This application is calculation intensive -
depending on your processor speed it could take a few
seconds to calculate the tables. Microsoft in it's
infinite wisdom has a message box that sometimes pops
up claiming the application has stalled. It's wrong -
just click continue. Netscape does not have this
issue.
