From My experience, there is not a single stock rear end. It depends on engine, body/chasis length, 2wd/4wd, tow package, etc. In Researching my 2005 purchase, there were no less than 6 rear ends they put in that year alone. I can tell you that I had a 2005 2500HD with the 6 litre engine, and it had a 4.10 gear, my 05 1/2 ton ex cab long bed had a 3.73, my 05 crew cab has a 3.08 . Go figure..... The VIN will tell you what a particular truck has in it, however. I found a site (have deleted bookmark, sorry) that you can put in the VIN for GM vehicles and it will tell you what the vehicle has in it. Very helpful for a guy looking for a specific rear end and other specs. Most used dealers don't know specific details like that....
it will probably be 3.73
i believe it would be 3.11
from the factory the 5.3 liter Chevy has 330 horsepower at the crankshaft it has about 290 at the tires depending on gear ratio
3:73 with 4:10 as option
NO it has nothing to do with the engine dieing. You have other problems.
i have a 92 silverado 1500. put 410 gear in and took out stock 308 gear. yours is probaly the same if you have 350 engine and 700 trans.
Hear is an easy way to find out what your truck has in it FOR SURE. Wright the VIN # down and call a Chevy parts dealer and tell them that you have the VIN# and would like to know what the gear ratio is in your truck.
the rear end is prob 3:42 limited slip rear end
3.8
wont kickdown into passing gear
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.
The stock gear ratio for a 1995 Chevy Blazer is 3.73. This provides a good balance of fuel economy and power to the rear wheels.
