In the differential of auto/truck.
A crown and pinion are used in steering and driving. A pinion gear is used to steer against the force of gravity, while the crown is a wheel with cogs lining along its rim.
Axle ratio is determined by the number of teeth on the crown gear and the number of teeth on the pinion gear. A 3.55 ratio for example means the pinion gear rotates 3.55 times to every one rotation of the crown gear. If you are going straight , the drive shaft will turn 3.55 times to one rotation of the wheel.

No, a crown and pinion gear system does not directly increase speed. Its main function is to change the direction of rotation and transmit power between two intersecting shafts at right angles. The gear ratio between the crown and pinion gears determines the speed and torque output.
Well the answer is a wheel:):):):):):):)
Back lash is best described as how much the pinion gear will move before contacting and moving the crown gear. This is specified and measured on the crown gear.
The speed in a crown and pinion gear system is constant, meaning the input and output speeds are equal. However, the direction of rotation is changed.
A train running along a track. The rail is the rack and the wheels are the pinion.
a gear found in the differential that meshes with the crown wheel to deliver drive threw a 90 degree angle to the road wheel
That's the drive gear assembly in your rear differential ( the center part that is bigger )
a crown and pinion is a st of gears that mesh at an angle.
