odd ball


i just gotta be in third to take hills and it takes them just fine but if i try in fourth it just bogs down and i cant really use fifth at all unless im going like 90 or more and thats just out rageous
 
The Tags are long gone off mine but I think my 96 has those gears.....it sucks cuzz it hates hills.....

Your door sticker is gone too? (has your axle code)

You could mark your rear driveshaft, then jack up ONE rear tire and give the tire exactly TWO complete rotations by hand while counting how many turns your driveshaft rotates.*
3¼ turns = 3.27:1, 3½ turns = 3.55:1, 3¾ turns = 3.73:1 and so forth.

* For Open (conventional) or Limited Slip (Traction-Lok) differentials only (all stock differentials).

I just checked and its giving me an axle cod of D4?? and ya it goes fine in 3rd gear. 4 gear it wants to bog depending on how fast I was going and year mine is the same 5th eventually will kill it...
 
tune up fuel pump fuel filter..... still seems like it doesnt have enough gear or power to deal with some of these hills.... and as far as I know its never been changed got it off the orignal owner.... i be the second owner of it...
 
You running stock-size tires? (235/75R15, 245/70R16) Or you got something bigger than that on it?
