Next quick question...how do you tell if they are a series 2 carrier or a series 3 carrier?

If you get 2.73 ratio it is a 2 series. 3.23 and 3.42 are 3 series. Hope that helps.

I believe most sets also have the numbers stamped onto the ring gear Ex.(42-13)

The teeth count for both a series 2 and a series 3 will be the same...but how to tell which series it is. Like 3.73's the teeth count for both series is gonna be 41-11, but how would i tell which series it would be.

How can you tell whether a gear is that gear? I did a search but with like 200 post it would be easier just to post this. Thanks

Count the ring teeth. Count the pinion teeth.
Ring Divided by Pinion = Gear Ratio

If it is a GM gear 2.73-3.08 it is a 2 series. 3.23 and up are 3 series. If you have an aftermarket gear you have a chance of a 2.73-3.08 thick gear(meaning 3 series), but 3.23 and up will still be 3 series.
