We need to know the size of the diff. 14 bolt 9.5 ich ring or 10.5 full floater... We need to know this so you have a good bolt in rear. PLUS the gear ratio will be needed. Jim

1984 gmc g2500 van,the engine i have is a 4.1 250 cid inline six cylinder,my trans is a 700r4 and my rear end is a 8.5 10 bolt rear end and the gear ratio is a 3.42,what gear ratio should i run is this van considering this is a work vehicle,im trying to get good gas mileage,but i dont want to lose to much towing capacity,i do use a a trailer ocassionally,would a 3.73 work well or should i stay with 3.42,and also do you have a rear end i can get from you,or can you just rebuild mine,thanks jim.
