The numbers you people are referring to are the number of rotations of the pinion gear. Hence 4.11 gives you four point one one rotations of the gear per 1 rotation of the rear wheels. Higher number is more rotations but limits top speed. Also keeps engine rpm higher causing the engine to work harder. Lower ratios 3.55, 3.33 give a lower rotation speed under acceleration but greatly improve top speed and fuel milage. Less rpm at the same mile per hour obviously will result in better fuel milage. Like my buddy's Trans Am we swapped the 3.73s for 4.11s. Gave it way more acceleration and low end torque but it was screaming topped out 115, it had nothing more. So we swapped to 3.55s. Ration was to low no low end torque just a turd. So we tried 3.90s and that was the magic number, 60s in less than 6 seconds and gets up to about 140ish. Like the difference between a big tire car and a small tire car. Higher number i.e. big tires =more acceleration Lower number i.e. small tires = top speed. You're welcome. 😒

881 comments and, I did not go through all of them to find out if I am the first to mention that; You have a pack of overload spring leafs BUT, no stops for them. Just the funky U-bolts down to the main pack. Next to useless. The easiest way to change a rear axle is; jack the chassis way up and, roll it out on the wheels. Roll the new one in the same. It saves trying to muscle it up on the floor jack. The P-30 had notoriously bad ball joints. It was a "1 ton" chassis that was eventually rated up to 14,500 GVW.
