That personaly seems a bit high for a pickup, that is something you would see in a Crown Victoria or other big cars. It would be good on gas mileage, but a little hard for pulling since the engine would have to really work to get moving.
My stock 86 D150 pickup with the inline six came with 3.21 gears, with options like 3.72 and 4.10. That motor is not a real power house either, and the 4x4 V8 trucks would have ran 4.10 gears.
Hope this helps out.
THE 2.75 GEARS ARE FOR GAS MILAGE.you may find a sticker on door jams that will tell you what rear it came with.If you want or need more power ,go to about 3.23, More power 3.55
Depending on automatic or standard transmission and gear ratio, probably between 16-19 mpg.
There isn't a specific digit for the gear ratio. The last nine digits are vehicle specific, the dealer can input those digits in their computer system to get the build list of the truck. The ratio will be listed there.
Depends on the gear ratio, power-to-weight ratio, and drag coefficient of the specific truck.
Rear end ratio: 2.82
Most were 3.55:1Most were 3.55:1
If your asking about the gear ratio, Then write the VIN # down and call a Chevy dealer and ask for parts. Then ask the parts man if he'll tell you the gear ratio and that you have the VIN# on you truck. He'll tell you what the gear ratio is from the factory.
All you need to do is call a Chevy dealer and give them the VIN# and asked them what the gear ratio is in your truck and they will tell you what the factory gear ratio is.
90w gear lub
Can range from 272,323,355,410
3.55 or optional 3.90
depends on gas or diesel i think i would want the 3.73 in the diesel for more rpm vs speed out of the low rpm cummins plus has plenty of power. 4.10 with the gas for heavy loads.
In some 1982 Ford f100 trucks I know they have a 4.10 Gear ratio like my truck but with that gear ratio if you go over 55 mph you can say goodbye to your gas mileage so get a smaller gear ratio.
