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?
It is on the bottom of the steering gear box.
Most likely, 355.
Yes, as long as it is the same gear ratio.
Count the ring gear teeth and the pinion gear teeth and divide the ring gear # into the pinion gear # and that will be the gear ratio. Are you can write the VIN# down and call a Chevy dealer and ask for parts. Then tell the parts man that you have the VIN# and you would like to know the gear ratio in your truck. He'll tell you.
most common ratio is 373
