yeah it i'll make a cool vid, i was gonna suggest that a few pages back, you can test your gear ratio at the same time, just put a zip tie around the ds at 12 o'clock and tape ur wheel at 12 o'clock and count the revs

Yeah, because I'm sure this genius knows what gear ratio is. Given the information provided by the OP I think its safe to conclude that he is incapable of understanding how gears and differentials work.

This thread started out as an encouragement to wheel and have fun even though you don't have lockers and that's all been about destroyed.

This whole locker argument is moronic. I said from the get go lockers are better than no lockers. But I Aldo stated if given the choice I would take suspension.

Anyways I will post the video when I get home from work. But I can tell from the attitudes here your minds are made up no matter what I post. No different than Obama voters as well as the liberal/conservative debates.
