-With a standard differential raise one wheel off of the ground, mark the tire at the 6:00 position, mark the drive shaft. Turn the tire exactly 2 full turns. Count the number of times that the drive shaft turns.
-3/4 turns of the drive shaft = 2.73, just past 3 turns = 3.08, 3 1/3 = 3.23 or 3.31, almost 3 1/2 = 3.42, just past 3 1/2 = 3.55, 3 3/4 = 3.73, just past 4 = 4.10 or 4.11.
-With a good solid limited slip differential (posi) raise both wheels off of the ground and turn both wheels exactly 1 full turn. Everything else is the same as above. You can also do this with a standard differential as long as both wheels turn exactly 1 full turn.
-This is much easier with 2 or 3 people.
