Naumoff,

Easy way to remember low versus high gearing is. The higher the ratio number the lower the gear ratio. Example 4:11 is a high number and that is a low gear ratio. 3:00 is a lower number but a much higher gear ratio. Most ford Galaxies in the 60s with automatics used the 3:00 ratio as the stock one. Hope this simplifies it some.

Ron
