Could some body help me?

What is the axle ratio on a '93 960 wagon? It has a 6 cyl engine I understand

Can some one tell me what the car weight would be relative to a mid 80's 740?

Thanks,

Steve

    According to the owners manual it came with a 3.31 rear end.

    The weight for your car is 3449 lbs

    A 1986 740 GLE wagon's weight comes in at 3049-3053 lbs

      Thanks for the links, they are very helpful. Where do you find a listing of those links? I have been unable to find one.

      thanks, Steve

    The 960 sedan weighs about 3,491 lbs. The RAR on a 1993 I think is 3.93. On the 95 and newer it is 3.73 because of the different HP/TQ profile of the engine. Someone will correct me if I am wrong.
