bogie:
Can anyone tell me which is the highest ratio 1.211 or 1.222. And by how much higher?????????????????

Range Rover Blues:
Errr, EH?

The highest ratio os the one with the biggest number, that's what a ratio is.  I suspect you mean which one will give you the highest road speed for a given engine speed and as it's a reduction ratio you want the smaller of the 2.

Are these the Borg Warner and the LT230 by any chance? in which case the B-W was designed for the 3.9 rather than the 3.5.!

As for the difference, well 1.211/1.222, or the reciprocal.

1.00908 or therabouts, almost 1%

bogie:
well they r both 230s which came off discos. the 1.222 is the common disco that iknow of. The 1.211 came off a 97 300 commerical. so there is hardly any difference???????????????

Range Rover Blues:
If they are both LT230s they might actually be the same, unless the gears were significantly changed inside I can't imagine how there can be a 1% difference using the same size gears.

Possibly it's a matter of mathematics?

Anyway, the difference is negligeable.

bogie:
thats alright then,ive just put it on and it goes for ever in each gear now!
