Default What would happen if

your gearbox and diff ratio's were different?

What symptoms would you find?

Would this cause vibrations?

Thanks for any help

Thanks Dunx.
The reason I am asking is I have just bought a reconditioned box from a company on the internet, had it shipped to my mechanic who fitted it, and since then I have had the feeling of my rear wheels wanting to go faster than the front. The mechanic had another look at the prop to see if it was that but it wasn't. There is a lot of vibration when I pull away (especially out of a turning and my front wheels are pointing anywhere but forward)

Can anybody else shed any light on this problem?
Many Thanks

get it on a rolling road ? or get the part numbers off the gearbox and diff and ask API if they are right.
