4.10, 4.30, 4.56, or 4.88

What is your axle code?

 

ill have to look tomorrow morning as it is too dark to see the vin right now...

 

i understand now...reading is a good thing lol

 

There, not so hard strainin' the ol' noodle was it? I aint the best at explaining things in words, I can show ya how it's done better.

 

i misread one part of the article, thus it faulted the whole process, once i reread i realized what i had missed...

 

ok so this is what i got

G294

So that means G=8.0"
2=3.360
9=4.222
4=4 pinions

now explain to me how i know whether i have 4.10, 4.30, 4.56, 4.88

 

See:
- http://www.4crawler.com/4x4/4R_TechI...oDetermination

G=8"
29=4.10
4=4 pinion

 

im sorry guys...i dunno whats with me tonight...i guess 2 hours of sleep, plus school all day, and working on the truck, and going to the gym has taken its toll, cuz im all out of it tonight, i cant even follow simple directions...thank you for the help, its been much appreciatted...

this totally explains how the truck is like a dog on hills with the 31 inch tires...

 

i just thought of another question now....and im sorry if its stupid...i used to be nothing but a front wheel drive guy, so im pretty new to a 4X4 drivetrain...if i were to change the third member in the rear to say 4.56 or 4.88, obviously this would help, but would i also need to regear up front also...i would assume yes...but im not sure at all...

 

If you actually want to use 4WD, then yes. Why, you generally want both the front and rear wheels turning the same speed, makes driving possible. Only real exception would be if you wanted to run, say 28" tires up front with the 4.10s and 31s out pack with the 4.56s.
