Gear ratio

605Jake123 · Apr 13, 2011

I am in the process of purchasing an 04 tahoe with the 5.3L and i noticed today when looking at the add online that it says it has the tow package. Does that mean it has the 4.10 gearing or could it have others with the tow package?

That's a good question! I have the tow package as well. I was just in a thread too, where we were talking about this. One of the guys posted up everything you need to know. I don't remember the name of the thread though! Try the search feature. If you can find the thread, it has everything you need to know in it.

............and Welcome to the forum!

No lol, there aren't 4.10 ratio grears in it from the Factory. My 2001 has a Tow package and I it came with like 3.23's She has 4.10's now and man will she get up and go or pull a Boat or U-hual with ease. but the fuel Consumshion is Very Bad too. I belive there where two Gear Ratios that You could get from the Factory with the Tow Package.

4.10 was available from the factory. Look at your RPO sheet (in your glove box) to see what gear ration you actually have:

GT4 Rear axle, 3.73 ratio
GT5 Rear axle, 4.10 ratio
GU5 Rear axle, 3.23 ratio
GU6 Rear axle, 3.42 ratio
