chevy quart 14 1 ton rear differential

hey, i am wanting to install a chevy 1 ton quart 14 in the rear of my 93 w250. what gear ratios did chevy have in there rear ends? and are there any that will be close to my 3:54 gears? also i am wanting to install a dually rear end and the tries i have are 38.5" superswampers, would a 4:10 gear ratio be best with my 47rh transmission?

38.5's are pretty tall, I'd go with at least a 4.10 ratio. The 14 bolts come in the same basic ratios as the dana axles.

Not if he plans on modding a 1st Gen of his own some day. Ask me how I know...

Actually, she's not that bad, and likes my truck. It's funny listening to her trying to talk diesel with me and my brothers.

your to young to have a G/F. They are just a waste of time and money, plus at your age they are way more boring compared to hanging out with the boys and modding motors

Not sure what kind of girls you hung out with when you were in your teens.

73-00 C,K,V,P series vehicles

If it has a tag take that as what might be in there, only sure way is to pull the cover and count teeth,
