Diameter? Probably 7.5" Ratio? Matters what options were put in or ordered.

Check your code numbers to cross reference them. There's a bunch of info on here through the home page under Chevy.  The code is stamped on the axle, passengers side between the brake hub & the axle housing, on the side that faces to the front of the car, usually.

I don't believe the 7.5 was used until the '78 models, G bodies etc The 8.5 will take a lot of punishment, from a small block, at least mine have.

Most seem to come with 3.08 or 2.73. Spin the tire by hand and count the rotations of the driveshaft compared to the tire.
