Metric System
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2007 Dodge Durango and 2007 Chrysler Aspen. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The metric system is based on quantities of one, ten, one hundred, one thousand and one million.
The following chart will assist in converting metric units to equivalent English and SAE units, or vise versa.
CONVERSION FORMULAS AND EQUIVALENT VALUES
| MULTIPLY | BY | TO GET | MULTIPLY | BY | TO GET |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| in-lbs | x 0.11298 | = Newton Meters (N.m) | N.m | x 8.851 | = in-lbs |
