Does anybody know what the rear end gear ratio is in a 58 1/2 ton pickup that had the factory v-8 in it. It also has the 3 on the tree tranny. Thanks mark

Practically all of them had 3.90 rear ends. There were a few 3.38 but they are very rare.


They say money can't buy happiness. It can buy old Chevy trucks though. Same thing.

I kind of thought so but the Guy I'm asking for was told they were 4:11 or taller. He said that it is low geared. I figured with the 3 speed tranny it possibley was 3:90. Mark
