The ratio has to be the same only if its 4 wheel drive. You never stated whether yours was or not. There is no such thing as a manual or automatic diff. I am not sure what you are refering to but I assume you mean manual or automatic hubs on the front diff.

yes mine is 4wd w/manual hubs. i was asking if there was a difference in the gearing between man and auto in relation to the rear end ratio or otherwise, i don't know anything about this stuff. thanks.

Oh I get it. LOL. The diffs can have a few different gear options, depending on what the purchaser ordered, at the time of purchase. The ratio is stamped on a tag that is attached to the diff cover. They must be the same.

to tell you the truth i never looked at the axles or anthing

the motor runs just think somthing like a fuse blew when it was crashed . . . .. but the engines fine ,. . . .

im in salem county i think thats more south of morristown altho ive heard of it the chassis rolls the interior has been stripped . . .. . you can get most of you money back be selling the motor and tires. . . .. and just scrapping anything else you arent gonna use

pm me for my # and we'll make a deal
