Default How do I figure out my gear ratio?

I did not get my window sticker after I bought our truck, and then of course they could not find it when I asked about it. 2009 1500 Ram Laramie 5.7 Hemi. Just trying to figure out the gear ratio that I have in this truck.

If I call the VIN # into the dealer can they tell me?

Thanks, Arlo

you can usually find your ratio inside the glovebox sticker,driver side door sticker or on teh actually rear differential housing itself (pumpkin). my 06 had it in the glovebox and on the rear diff housing. i havent looked on my 09 yet

Sticker is on the passenger side rear axel housing toward the bottom. It will give you the ratio. Mine is 3.55.

exactly where mine is. My window sticker had 3.92, so does axle sticker. I was crawling under each truck I liked on each dealers lot before even considering it. I was making sure window sticker was correct, 3.92 was a must, 4.10 would have been a great find !
