: Also, the 1/2 ton diesel burb typically had a 3.42 axle ratio and the 3/4 ton had the 3.73. the reason for this is that the diesel spins slower and with more torque, therefore doesn't need the lower geared rearend.
Yes, typically this is the case, but not always... My '94 K2500 6.5L has 4.10s from the factory.
