When inspecting used rearend gears, check the teeth for damage and examine the coast side to make sure no   abnormal wear   exists. Also inspect the threads on the pinion gear for   damage. To verify   the ratio, check the ring-and-pinion   tooth count stamped on each gear or   count the teeth. To determine the ratio, divide the ring gear’s tooth count by the pinion gear’s tooth count. For example, 41 ring-gear teeth divided by 11 pinion-gear teeth would   indicate a 3.73:1 ratio   (41 ÷ 11=3.73).
