not for sure because they come with different ratios, but will tell you that you can call your local dealer and give them the vin. number and they can tell you what it is suspose to have in it. each one of the numbers and letters is very important for thing like when it was built, engine size, color, gear ratios, and so forth, so as long as the rear end hasn't been changed they should be able to tell you what ratio you have in it
3.73 or 4.10
its either 355 or 373 there are tags on diff that give you numbers
50-5050-50
Your owners manual should make specific recommendations. It depends largly on the type of hitch you are using: class II, class III, weight distributing, etc. According to the manual 6000 lbs with a factory towing package (which includes a transmission cooler), without it 2000 lbs.
threre are a few, depending on the engine: Trailer Tow Prep Group (requires I-6 engine) * 3.73:1 axle ratio * Mechanical cooling fan * Trailer tow wiring assembly Trailer Tow Group Class III (requires I-6 engine) * 3.73:1 axle ratio * Transmission oil cooler * Frame-mounted receptacle for load-equalizer type hitch * 7-into-4-way plug adapter Trailer Tow Group Class IV (requires V8 engine) * 3.73:1 axle ratio * Power steering cooler * Transmission oil cooler * Frame-mounted receptacle for load-equalizer type hitch * 7-into-4-way plug adapter
If you have the SR5 or Limited, the ratio for the V8 4x4 (TRD or non TRD) is 3.909. For the Base package it is 3.769.
There where about three options from the factory. 3.07, 3.55, and 4.10.
The owner's manual says with the 5.0L and 3.73 axle ratio, the maximum towing capacity is 6620 lbs. Henry
there should be a tag screwed into the bolts on the rearend differential cover that says what the gears are. They are all different depending on whether or not you have the towing package
In order to have good fuel economy and good performance, the best gear ratios for a jeep Cherokee with 33" tire size are: 3.91 4.11 4.27
8,300 with the 3.73 ratio 10,300 with the 4.10 ratio
6100
The towing capacity for the 2003 Volkswagen Jetta wagon is not listed as it is not recommended due to small gear ratio. The transmission is at risk to engage in towing and is an expensive repair.
In a sense yes and in a sense no. A Lower axle ratio will provide better MPG, but will not do as good on the towing, High will give more towing power but less MPG. I recommend the 2nd lowest axle ratio available (if 1 or 2 only then go with the lowest)!
For towing, yes. For fuel mileage, no.
final axle ratio 3.55
2000- 3000 lbs depening on the gear ratio
