Guys,

Is the gear ratio for the 1957 D300 style full floating corporate rear axle stamped on the housing somewhere? This axle should be basically the same as 1957-58 D200, 1957-60 D300, 1957-60 W200.

Any information on easy ways to find the ratio other than jacking up the truck and spinning a tire or pulling the rear cover to check the numbers on the gears would be helpful. I seem to remember it was stamped somewhere on the center section, but I may be thinking of a different axle.

Thanks,
Eric

That is a good method, but harder on some folks. - Eric B. 12:47:26 03/17/2014
