The gear ratios front and rear are the same for the P500- 4.07:1, and I did the tooth count on my front diff when I had it apart for the Torq-Locker install. The parts list has the tooth count for the rear diff wrong. I attached a page from the service manual that shows the difference between the early and later model machines.
