New rear axle turning

Is it possible to use a different ratio on the rear end?

would it need to be tuned or COULD it be tuned?

Nope. Been there, done that. https://www.greenhybrid.com/forums/f...8-tahoe-30759/
You need 3.08:1 ratio, unless you have an Escalade. Escalades have 3.42:1. Either way, put the same ratio that's in there now.
