The ratio is often marked in the casing : something like 25 or 22, but none of the standard ratio's will improve the 3 O/D use that much : the power loss through the overdrive will not be compensated by the better overall gearing, but it can come in handy sometimes to engage 3rd O/D for just a couple of seconds and then again go to 3rd</div><div>Marcel</div><hr id="zwchr" data-marker="__DIVIDER__"><div data-marker="__HEADERS__"><b>Van: </b>"fot" <fot@autox.team.net><br><b>Aan: </b>"Bob Kramer" <rkramer56@gmail.com><br><b>Cc: </b>"fot" <fot@autox.team.net><br><b>Verzonden: </b>Maandag 15 november 2021 12:10:05<br><b>Onderwerp: </b>Re: [Fot] TR6 gearbox rebuild<br></div><div><br></div><div data-marker="__QUOTED_TEXT__"><div dir="ltr">there are several different overdrive ratios, you need to change the sun gear , annulus and 3-gear set<br><div>Terry <br clear="all"><div><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><br></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Mon, Nov 15, 2021 at 11:24 AM Bob Kramer via Fot <<a href="mailto:fot@autox.team.net" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">fot@autox.team.net</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb( 204 , 204 , 204 );padding-left:1ex">JK Jackson had that all figured out for a non overdrive box with the goal to get a better 2-3 spread.<br>

Is there a way to check if there is some damage caused by over heating? Everything seems good from a tolerance perspective, just concerned about the slight blue color. <br>

I have a ton of gearboxes laying around, so if there is a combination I should try I’d love to give it a shot. <br>
