What rear diff gearing do I have?
Gents,
I bought my 2012 used, and the VIN decoder says I have a 3.73 differential; the original window sticker from the dealership (I purchased from the same dealership that originally sold it) says 3.55...is there another way to confirm? TIA.

The motor you have is a gas motor. 6.2L not diesel in that list with 3.73. As soon as you selected diesel it dropped to 3.31....
Also the question was on a 2012, not a 2016 anyways...
I would have liked a 3.73 in 2011 and I know for a fact you couldn't get that ratio in that year. I special ordered my truck and tried to get it and couldn't.

You also get 3:55 gears with the camper PKG which mine has (2015). I agree with those who say 3:73 is not an option with SRW diesel. I haven't looked at mine, but there should also be an axle code on the door sticker. Take that and go to the owners manual and it should tell you.

Thanks for the feedback guys...I didn't notice the first time around that they had both engines listed in the options. Mine does have the camper package, so I guess I can trust the 3.55 listed on the window sticker.
