This is for the 9" rear. I have an open diff because when I tried the 'ol jack the axles up and spin the tire method, the other tire spun in the opposite direction. Also, I get inconsistent results when I try this method, the drive shaft seems to spin only when applying a little force or speed to turning the tire.
Next method I tried was the tape and string to the drive shaft, I then DROVE the truck forward exactly 1 rear wheel rotation.
What I am getting at the drive shaft is about 2 3/4 or 2.75 wraps of the string around the Dshaft.
The front axles has a tag that says 4:10, so I was assuming (and yes I know what that means) that the rear is 4:11.
What gives?
Would rather not have to crack the case if I don't have to at this time...
Thanks.
