There should be an aluminum tag on the diff cover bolts that will say 3:73
4:11
3:07
Whatever ur tag says is what the stock set up is,unless someone regeared it before.
But post your year,model,engine and transmission and it will most likely tell us what ratios were avalible
yea. Just look at your back differential. (the big round part on the axles, between the back tires) Then its on the left of the Diff. Sometimes hard to see because they get all black, so bring a flashlight. The front and back will be the same gearing. If they weren't, the 4WD wouldn't work. Probably 3.73, but could be 4.10 also.
Sorry i shouldve said this before. im not a total noob i mean i know a lot, i mean i know what blinker fluid is and halogen fluid is and exhaust bearings, just never had to deal with gearing before since this is my first jeep lol i know what a diff is. i found the tag on it but cant read it i need to take some brake cleaner to it. the only reason why i got to wondering is one, im look at runnin 33's and two, my uncle just bought an 01 sport with a d44 and it was a DD for some old lady in the city but it had 4.10 gears in it. Mine was owned by some dude in a jeep club in colorado. so im hoping it has 4.10 gears. I found a tag on the right side as well that said "use limit slip diff fluid"
Jack the axle, spin tires and count drive shaft! Only way to be sure, or open up the diff and count the teeth on the ring and pinion, but spinning the tires is much easier.
You don't have to actually count the teeth, it'll be stamped on the outside edge of the ring gear. He should open it up and change the lube anyhow, since he just bought it...Right, Trav?
