EVOthis Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 I have a 1996 legacy 2.2 with a 5 spd....any insight on the different final drive ratios that were offered that year??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idosubaru Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 almost positive it'll be a 3.9 the only other possibility is 4.11..but not because it was offered just because i can't remember exactly. the manuals are the easiest to look up with a search. some plugging around here or on the internet will pull up a large spread sheet of all the manual trans final drive ratios. auto's are more difficult to verify.

johnceggleston Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 I have a 1996 legacy 2.2 with a 5 spd....any insight on the different final drive ratios that were offered that year??? 96 2.2L M/T is a 3.9 96 2.2L A/T is a 4.11 96 2.5L M/T is a 4.11 (outback, gt, & lsi) 96 2.5L A/T is a 4.44 (outback, gt, & lsi) the only exception to this is, the 96 2.2L outback A/T, it has a 4.44.

edrach Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 Look up the TY number on your car's transmission bell housing or on the VIN# plate on the driver's side fender well. It'll be something like TY752VA5AA. Then look up that number in the transmission information thread in the USRM. It'll tell you the differential ratio of the transmission and the rear end ratio. It will be either 3.900 or 4.111, most likely 3.900. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
