1952 Gear ratio

Is there any way to tell what gear ratio I have in my 52 (1/2 ton) with out cracking open the differential? Can't count the revolutions of the drive shaft with a torque tube.. Thanks

Yep it's 4.11 but you can scroll down to the Standard equipment page where it shows it.

Save the page as it gives you info you want to know about your truck as far as specs go and is a great reference to have. https://www.gmheritagecenter.com/doc...olet-Truck.pdf
