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.
3.08
That is done through the dealers computer system. There isn't one specific digit in the vin for the axle ratio.
most definitely
Best thing to do, is change the gear ratio in the axle. Depending on what gear ratio you have now, go to a lower numerical axle ratio. For instance, if you have a 3.73 gear ratio now, try using a 3.55, or 3.23. You will be going faster, before the engine hits the chip.
An axle ratio is a comparison of the number of ring gear teeth to the number of pinion gear teeth in a differential. For instance, a 3.55 gear ratio means that there are 3.55 ring gear teeth to every 1 pinion tooth.
You'd have to look at the RPO code in the glove compartment to determine this, as there were a couple different options. The gear ratio for the front and rear axle will match.
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

No, it does not
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.
Depends on each individual truck. Look in your glovebox....there is a label from the factory with parts codes on it. The one with G refers to your gear ratio/ ring & pinion.
