There are four ways to find a ratio.
1 A dealer can normally tell from the vin number.
2 There are normally tags or labels on the axle that have part number, gear ratio, and fluid requirement
info.
3 You can count how many times you have to turn the driveshaft to get one complete turn of the tires.
4 You can divide the number of teeth on the ring gear and divide by number of teeth on the pinion.
What is the gear ratio on a 1996 2wd suburban 1500?
i believe it would be 3.11
3.8
3.8
siéra 1500
If the front is 3.55, then the rear needs to be 3.55
i have a 92 silverado 1500. put 410 gear in and took out stock 308 gear. yours is probaly the same if you have 350 engine and 700 trans.
They used a few of them. Open the cover, count the teeth on the big gear ( the ring gear ) next count the teeth on the small gear ( the pinion gear). Divide the big gear by the little gear and that is your ratio.
Probably 3.55, but there were a couple of options.
It should be a 342.
Most were 3.55:1
Yes
