THIS IS FOR THE AXLE GEARING. JACK UP THE REAR END. AND SPIN THE DRIVESHAFT AND WATCH THE TIRE. IF ITS A 4.89:1 YOULL HAVE 4.89 TURNS OF THE DRIVESHAFT TO 1 TURN OF THE TIRE. LIKEWISE WITH THE 5.33:1. ITS VERY SIMPLE. BUT YOU MIGHT WANNA DO IT A FEW TIMES IN CASE YOU GET EXCITED AND LOOK AWAY FOR A SECOND AND LOOSE YOUR COUNT OR YOU SPOT ON THE TIRE. GOOD LUCK!!!!
