5spd dr ratios 1st to 5th

Featured Replies

I know there have been numerous posts about this, but the only answers to be found when searching were about diff ratios, and links that no longer work. So my searching got me nowhere. I would like to get the transmission gear ratios for a 5spd dual range tranny. Thanks.

Source = 1992 Subaru FSM for L series (EA82)

 

Gear then ratio then actual tooth count on cogs.

1st = 3.545 (39/11)

2nd = 2.111 (38/18)

3rd = 1.448 (42/29)

4th = 1.088 (37/34)

5th = 0.871 (34/39)

 

REV = 3.416 (41/26/12)

Regards

huh, I thought the dr 5spd has a 1st gear closer to 3.7? maybe pushbutton vs dr is different? But thanks!

The 2wd boxes have 3.63 or so on the front. The info posted is from the 92 FSM. However as far as I am aware all the 4wd boxes had 3.545 first gears

85 fsm:

1-3.545

2-1.974

3-1.366

4-0.972

5-0.780

R-3.416

H-1.000

L-1.592-wagon

L-1.196-turbo sedan

Are the numbers out of the '92 FSM for a single range, push button? If they are for a Dual Range can you please post the numbers for H and L ?
