However - this is the way I have it mounted. I can’t lay under the vehicle to count an exact revolution as the jeep drives forward…
The circumference of the circle that the magnet travels is 498mm (C=2PiR).
I have 4.88 gears, and 34.5” tires.
I entered 498 into the rally comp where the circumference of the tire should go, for lack of a better idea. I am off (using Jeep odo and cell gps app) by about 200-250 meters per mile.
how can I determine how far my Jeep travels during a single full rotation of the magnet around my driveshaft?
my best idea is with a plumb bob attached to my sliders, and mark on the ground when the computer/odometer ticks over .01 (indicating a magnet pass) and then again when it ticks over to .02 (indicating another magnet pass) and again a third, fourth, and maybe fifth time. Then measure between all the marks and find the average. Since I need mm, I think I should do this many times to get a good number.
but if anyone has other suggestions, I’d love to hear them.
thanks
