Re: '67 12 bolt gear ratio

I know in 50 plus yrs It could’ve been changed, but you could always check the code on the axle tube. Should be on the passenger side between the trailing arm mount and carrier housing. It usually anywhere from 12 to 3 o’clock on the tube.

If you find the code on the axle tube or housing here are the conversion charts I posted a few years ago.

Check posts #8 & #19 for a couple of the code stamp locations..

Re: '67 12 bolt gear ratio

If you don't want to pull the diff cover you can use these two calculators.

Get you tire size https://tiresize.com/calculator/
To find you gear ratio take the truck out and use your GPS to get an accurate MPH and a tach to get your RPM in top gear at like 70mph. Then put all that info onto
