check your door codes gu5=3.23 gu2= 2.73 if you have a 6sp it will say gu6 which is 3.42. Honestly if you have a 6sp go 3.90's or 4.10's if you have an auto dont go higher than 3.73's. IN fact if you have an auto with 3.23's then I would just leave it alone because you wont gain really anything by going bigger I would just go ahead and do a stall converter. Also if you go 3.90's get motive if you are going to go with any other ratio go yukon AAM or oem. Motive and richmond tend to be very noisy. If you have an m6 and it came down to motive 3.90's or 4.10s which can be had in an oem setup then go oem. Also if you have an m6 you have a series 3 carrier or if you have 3.23's you have a series 3 carrier if you have 2.73's its a series 2.
