Default How do I know what gears I have?

Im pretty sure they are 3.42's but I'm not sure, they might be 3.73's. Is there a code or something in the glovebox that would tell me this?If so, what are the codes for both?

Look on the sitcker in your glove box there should be one that says GT4 for 3.73 cause thats what you should have. Here are the three codes anyway

GT4=3.73
GU6=3.42
GT5=4.10

Yep it's a sticker in the glovebox in the larger department, scan through all of the codes on the sticker. 3.73 =GT4, 4.10 = GT5, I'm not sure on the other but tell me if those two codes didn't help and I'll look it up..

if all else fails, the old fashion way is to jack it uo and see how many times the driveshaft spins to 1 time that the rear tire spins.

I didn't know what the codes were, and this is what I would have suggested
