    A difference in axle ratio causes a difference in overall gear ratio essentially just the same way a different transmission gear causes a difference in overal gear ratio. If axle ratio was a non factor, then transmission ratio would also be a non factor. If the overall gear ratio matters, then the entire combination of transmission gear, axle ratio, and tire size all matter.
    I said Axle Gear is a non factor. Not transmission gear. The dyno connects to the cpu in the dash and uses the RPM of the engine to correct for the speed of the tumbler

    Stock jeeps get dyno'd in 3rd gear because the stock tune hits the speed limiter in 4th.

    Modded Jeeps get dyno'd in 4th, as it is closest to 1 to 1 ratio. I have never heard anywere of a jeep getting dyno'd in 5th gear.

    Ive been at this a while, and have interviewed and worked with every power mod manufacturer. They all say the same thing.

    Dynojet both drum speed and engine speed are measured and used to take out any effects of gear torque multiplication.
