3.07 or 3.54 for 2WD, 3.54 for 4WD were the 'factory' choices.

Re: 1963 GMC 2wd rear end gear
With the transmission in neutral, rotate the rear driveshaft by hand. Count the number of driveshaft revolutions required for one revolution of the tire.
If the driveshaft turns approximately 3-1/2 times, you have a 3.54 ratio, etc. It is helpful to use a grease pencil or chalk to make a reference point on both the tire and driveshaft while performing this test. Number of Turns Approx. Gear Ratio 3 3.05 : 1 3 - 1/2 3.54 : 1 3 - 3/4 3.73 : 1 4 4.10 : 1 4 - 1/2 4.55 : 1 |
