GT5 -- 4.10 gears
--
Pacifism - The theory that if they'd fed
Jeffrey Dahmer enough human flesh,
he'd have become a vegan.
GT5 in mine, along with the G80.
My 2003 has a 3.73 posi rear end and the code in the glovebox is GT4. I
also had a 2000 with a 3.42 posi rear and the 3.42 gears were standard
that
year for an LS, standard cab, short bed with a 4.8 V-8.
Good luck,
Karl

may be a long shot but would anyone know the difference in fuel economy
between the two axle ratio's.

With your valve stem straight down, make a chaulk mark on you r driveshaft.
Have someone drive truck straight ahead one tire rotation. Count number of
turns of driveshaft until the valve stem is straight down again. If mark has
gone around just over 4 times, it's a 4.10. Three and three quarters turns,
it's a 3.73. Just under3 and one half turns, a 3.42. Just over 3 turns, a
3.08. Quicker than tryin to cipher a code!
