Are you making a gearshift knob?

Ring and pinion gears need to be kept together or you'll never get an acceptable pattern IMHO. You'll need a matching ring and pinion or a whole diff third member.

In any case, standard for what? 3.7 3.9 4.1 4.3 4.6 4.8 or 5.12:1 are all "standard" 5.83 would be the only "non standard" ratio I can think of.

Suziworld in West Heidelberg should be able to help.

To add to what steve just said.
Why do you need to replace it? If it is damaged I would just about bet anything the ring is damaged.

HAHAHAHA as steve said there are a about 4 different standard ratio.












Mabey if you tell us what year and some more info about your sierra we could help you. Or if you take a second to look through the bible you wouldn't of had to make this post at all???

Your 1991 from previous posts, If the car is stock and has not been played with, it should have 3.7 gear ratios. Get a new set. Don't mix and match
