anyone know what final drive is likely to be fitted to a DAM 4818 box? or are there likely to be loads of possibilities?

no 100% answer

id guess between a 3.6 and a 3.1

I think its too early to have seen a 2.7 or a 2.9

but too late to have seen any of the really low stuff like 4.1 etc

I've put at least two into bits, they were both 3.44 from 10" wheeled 998's, they have A+ layshaft, mainshaft and idler gear, the teeth profile and ratio is Pre A+ though.
Not sure if they were also fitted to early metros with 3.65 final drive.

Cheers
Luis

All the DAM4818 we had here were fitted with 4.2's only.
