Default GM RPO Axle Codes

Assuming no changes were made, the easiest method of determining a rear axle gear ratio is to look in the vehicle manufacturer's service manual. The following Regular Production Option (RPO) codes identify the rear axle and trans axle overall final drive gear ratio's. These codes can be located on the RPO sticker in the glove box or in the trunk on most GM vehicles

General Motors Production Options.
The following Regular Production Option (RPO) codes identify the rear axle and transaxle overall final drive gear Ratios. These codes can be located on the RPO sticker in the glove box or in the trunk on most GM vehicles. Axle codes typically begin with the letter D, F, G, H, or Numerical.


These codes are arranged in alphanumeric order.
  • D-codes are typically front-wheel drive vehicles.
  • F-codes are typically front-wheel drive vehicles.
  • G-codes are typically rear-wheel drive vehicles.
  • H-codes are typically medium-duty trucks.
  • Numerical codes are typically medium-duty trucks.
