Look for the RPO code in the glove box for the axle ratio. There's a decoder in the Engine Performance and Maintenance section's stickies. That's only if it's stock though. Other option is to see how many RPM's you're turning @ a certain speed and gear and use those to calculate it.
ok so I went and checked the RPO code, I have a 3:42 gear ratio. one more question...what are the benefits for certain gear ratios? I don't quite understand how exactly they affect the vehicle during daily driving or towing and such....
