MG Midget and Sprite Technical - I really ought to know this already...

I have a 1973 1275 RWA US Spec midget... what is teh gear ratio on my rear differential?

I am preparing to place my order with Rivergate... and need to know this for the speedometer adapter.

Count it.

jack up one wheel.
mark it to the leafspring.
mark the dust flange on the diff.
turn the wheel 2 revolutions, count the revolutions on the diff.

there you go.
