GM-GMC: axle ratio, ring and pinion gears, rear axle ratio
QuestionI have a 92' chevy full size blazer 4x4 with a 350 and i need a new rear axle but the sticker in the glove box is scratched off. Do you know the rear axle ratio?
AnswerI do not know what you ratio would be if we got a vehicle in the shop with a scratched off sticker were pulling the rear diff. cover and counting the ring and pinion gears teeth then to figure out your ratio divide your ring gear teeth count/ pinion gear teeth count or you can do that here http://www.snoman.com/HTML/axlecalc_5a.html If you do have to do this one way that you can do to help you is wipe off the oil on a tooth on both gears and place a dab of white out on that tooth and use that as your starting tooth to count.
Hope this helps
