    152000Mi X 3.42 = 519840.... been around the loop a couple times i guess...

    ....hopefully this number will begin to rise a lot faster when i switch to 4.10's in the coming month
    Barks better than it bites......

    it would be interesting to see an engine revolution count on mine with the loose converter and 230k on the odometer, 4.10s for a while, 3.42s now, idling time, overdrive engaged, converter locked up, tires spinning... I can only imagine how many times a crankshaft has turned over in this truck. My old 92 had over 300k on it so it was undoubtedly higher. I would think a stick shift engine would have less revs on it.

    90,000-100,000 miles x 3.73 = 335,000-370,000 my odometer is off..

    I did mine wrong the 1st time somehow. It's really 746,377 but that's not revolutions that's pinion bearing miles. To get rev over the lifetime I would have to multiply that by number for pinion rotations per mile (27" diameter tire X Pi / 12 = 747.3XXX) so...

    Approx number of pinion bearing rotations = 558,290,619

    Well about 220,000 miles x 3.73 gears = 820,600 miles.

    Where did you get that number from??? Unless my calculator lies 27 x 3.14 = 85.59 and 85.59 / 12 = 7.065. Am I missing a step or something?

    No I put it in the wrong order or forgot the feet to mile part....

    Tire diameter times Pi (3.14159) that total divided 12. Take that total divide it INTO 5280 and get wheels revs per mile. Take wheel revs per mile and multiply by odometer which gives total wheel rotations. Multiply THAT times gear ratio and get pinion bearing rotations.

    Oh I seeeee now. I was like I know Im not THAT dumb .

    So....31.5" tire x Pi /12...divided into a mile is 640.25814044116878........and that x 220,000 miles is 140,856,790.8970571316 and that x 3.73 gears is 525,395,830.046023100868.

    I think thats quite a few times around.

    I guess its kinda tough for us to bitch if our bearing gives out. It seems to be rather busy....
