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.

To check the rear axle ratio on your Suburban, you need to safely jack up the vehicle to get access to the the rear axle. Then there should be a metal tag on one of the bolts on the rear axle cover indicating the axle ratio. The ratio varies with different options and load capacities, so it's not the same for all Suburban's.
depends on the options chosen at purchase, call g.m with axle number
That is done through the dealers computer system. There isn't one specific digit in the vin for the axle ratio.
Like 3 .42
These were the options in 2000: [DMC]=Axle Ratio - 3.21 [DMD]=Axle Ratio 3.55 [DMF]=Axle Ratio 4.10 [DMH]=Axle Ratio 3.92 These were the options in 2000: [DMC]=Axle Ratio - 3.21 [DMD]=Axle Ratio 3.55 [DMF]=Axle Ratio 4.10 [DMH]=Axle Ratio 3.92
Single piston, if it has disc brakes on the rear axle... some GM models still used drums for that MY. Not sure if the Tahoe did or not.
largely depends on axle ratio
what is rear end axle ratio
should be a plate mounted on one of the bolts on the chunk that will tell you the chunk is the big thing in the middle of the axle
