Did Chrysler ever have a 2:94 gear for an 8 3/4 rear axle? Thanks

there were 2.93's and 2.94's. from what i've seen the 2.94 superseded the 2.93 around '66 or '67. i have both in '741 cases. the gear teeth count is different between the two.

In the 8 3/4" rear end the 2.93 ratio (41-14) was used prior to '65 and the 2.94 (47-16) was used '65 and later.

Thanks to all for your replies. Are they found in primarily in C bodies or did the B bodies have them too?

Theyre very common in B bodies without HP engines
