Default RE: 73 power ram gear ratio

Put a chalk mark on the driveshaft and diff housing that line up.
If it's a posi, then jack up both wheels and turn them exactly once. Count how many time the shaft turns.
If it's not posi, then jack up one wheel and turn it exactly twice. Count how many times the shaft turns.
3 and 1/4 turns would be a 3.23
Almost 4 turns would be a 3.92.
Hope that helps.
