Two questions:
How do I tell what size differential housing/ring gear I have in my front/rear ends? (not 100% on the terminology, so bear with me...)
and...
Basically, my truck feels sluggish, and I'm wondering if changing the ratios is a worth-while investment. I'm currently on 275/60R20 wheels/tires, and I'm told by Santa that my BBP tune should arrive this Saturday. Does it make sense to get it tuned via the back & forth datalogging/tuning before messing with mechanical stuff, or will a tune and re-gear be a better combo?
Here is a snip of the Mechanical Info when I do a VIN search for my Yukon, and it shows a 3.08 ratio:
I see these various versions when I browse Rock Auto, as examples, and it got me thinking about what size rear-end I actually have.
Thoughts/comments/concerns?
