check for the data tag on the rear diffrental cover if not there you can jack up the truck make a mark on the pinion flange and one on the axle flange, lugnut or tire what ever will work for a refrence. turn pinion one turn while counting number of turns on axle end. the axle end number will be the gear ratio like 2.73 or 3.55 and so on. you can also look at the vin tag and use a brake down of the vin to determine the ratio
On a 2003 Ford Explorer : Open the drivers door and there is an information sticker on the latch pillar You will find the axle code under " axle " Once you have the axle code you can determine the axle ratio
I am not positive about this but, I believe that this indicates that the axle has a 3.00:1 gear ratio. Check with you local Ford dealer for a definitive answer.
In order to determine what axle and axle gears you have there will be a metal tag that is stamped with the gear ratio on the cover bolts and Dana has a number raised on the right bottom side where the axle tube enters the pumpkin. Between the two it will tell you what axle and ratio you have. If you have a limited slip then you axle ratio would read 3L55 instead of 3 55
I believe the axle code is listed on a sticker on the end of the drivers door The axle code will correspond to an axle ratio Once a person knows the axle code , the ratio can be looked up
I believe axle code " 18 " is a 3.08 conventional axle ( non limited slip )
Mine is 3:55
Open your drivers door and look at the information stickers , look for the axle code If you resubmit your question with the year of your F-150 and the axle code I'll try to look up the gear ratio - Helpfull
yes, there is a way
3.08
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.
No, I have a 3.55 in mine, I think there is one lower than that, and then a 3.73, and then a 4.10. What the hell is a 27? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- " OILMAN " had submitted a list of axle codes for the 1997 - 2004 F150 / F250 and the list shows axle code 27 as being a 3.31 conventional differential
For a 2001 F150, you can check the axle codes on your door sticker. The axle code to rear axle ratio values are as follows: 17 for 3.31 open differential, 19 for 3.55 open differential, H6 for 3.73 limited slip, H7 for 3.31 limited slip, and H9 for 3.55 limited slip.
