Patrick,
As far as gearing goes, you have your terminology reversed, in a
transmission, First gear (4.14 revolutions in for 1 revolution out) is
low gear, fourth gear (1 revolution in for 1 revolution out) is high
gear. On rear ends the terminology is the same, 3.00 revolutions in for
1 revolution out is a high (Tall) geared rear end, and a 4.10
revolutions in for 1 revolution out is a lower geared rear-end. Thus
4.10's are lower gears, and 3.00's are higher gears...
