Odd Ring Gear

There is a ring gear listed on ebay now the has 48 teeth, AND the Ford script. I’ve never heard of such a thing. Comments?

That 48 tooth Ford gear goes with a 12 tooth Ford pinion that is smaller than the 12 tooth offered by the vendors today.

I discovered that while looking for what the teeth are on the " 1 to 2-4/7 " in the add.

I have seen the 2-4/7 advertised and in old articles and was just curious.

The aftermarket houses were offering the 4 to 1 ( i assume 48 x 12) but what is the tooth on the 1 to 2-4/7?

The add below is June 1915
