[Tigers] 15 tooth

[Larry Mayfield]

Hey, good catch!  A 16 tooth replacing a 15 tooth one will turn about 6% slower. But most of us are running slightly larger tires anyway so, yeah, probably close enough.   When I put in a 3.54:1 rear gear with posi, I got the correct one for that gear ratio but was smart enough to keep my 15T one, lol.   I also kept the entire 2.88 gear set and rear end as well.  

 

Again, good catch and thanks for keeping us informed!

David Kee toploaders has a 16 tooth gear. That might be “Close enough for Government Work” as my dad used to say.

Just had an idea,  thought I would throw it out there in Tiger land.  Any reason someone that has a 3-D printer couldn’t make a 15 tooth speedometer gear for the Tiger??  Could sell a bunch??
