Easily switch rear axle ratio multiple times? (Non-ranger)
I don't know all of what goes into changing the axle ratio, whether it's swapping axles completely or what.
Say I had a... non-daily-driver car. Wanted to put in a 5.13 ratio or something. How easily could I switch back to say a 4.10 (or even lower like a 3.73) for something like a long trip in the vehicle and not spend a crazy amount on gas?

You need a ford 9" to do that

Re: Easily switch rear axle ratio multiple times? (Non-ranger)
what vehicle, the way the ranger is set up is stupid. In my old toyota, the complete differential is bolted to the housing, and is very simple to remove.

Re: Easily switch rear axle ratio multiple times? (Non-ranger)
Just exploring ideas. No specific car but would probably be a vintage.
