Re: '94 FWD transmission non conversion swap questions
40:9=4.44
37:9=4.11 39:10=3.90 39:11=3.545 All of the ring gears and all of the pinion gears are the same diameter. If we are only talking about the strength of the teeth in the front and rear differentials, then the ratio with the fewest number of teeth would have the thickest teeth and there fore the strongest teeth. In this case the 4.11 should have the strongest ring and pinion teeth. However the 4.44 has different first and second gear TRANSMISSION ratios that are lower than all other 4EATs by a sizeable amount making that transmission easier on the band and clutches. So, theoretically a 4.44 trans, using the 3.545 clutch basket, and a 4.11 differential SHOULD be the strongest set up. The other day when my Claret 4.44 chipped a pinion tooth after years of abuse, I just swapped in another 4.44, reinstalled my ECUTune valve body and called it a day. A REALLY long day becaust the trans that I bought has water damage issues.
