If you look at the last Pic in that post it shows the number 7-36 stamped into the 3rd memeber head. So if its anything like its smaller brother axle's the HO52/72 then it should be stamped, the gear ratio.

That other one was a post int he HO72 thread on Pirate and it shows the only one gear option for the 110.
Off topic but it does show a 5.83 axle ratio for a HO72, I would love to find a set of them

Despite what some one said on pirate, the "generals" parts manuals say different. I'm not aking a shot at that forum by any means, they have put together some great tech articles, but like anything on the net it isn't all true per say. I'm lucky enough to have some older GM truck parts manuals for reference, most GM dealers don't have them anymore.
5.13's were an HO72 ratio, it would be nice if the aftermarket stepped up and made them for the H110 though.
GM offered 2 ratios for the H110 (to partially credit the guys over on pirate), most axles will have 6.17's. However, some of the later axles (1980's era) had 5.43's (and disk brakes). GM lists a ring and pinion that ratio for 1982 P30. There is a guy not too far into Missouri with a 70's dodge power wagon (440 stage 5 hemi) that runs an H110 in the rear with 5.43's. He said it leaked the oil out over one winter in storage and chewed up some parts running oiless the next season. He claims to had a heck of a time finding another 5.43 third member.
The last HO72 ratio is a super oddball one year only deal ('63, something about a 3 speed manual with C30, if I remember right) the ratio is actually 5.38. Never seen a set yet.
One thing is certain, right now the HO72 and H110 are virtually unknown outside GM circles. They are proving themselves in competition applications and rapidly gaining popularity.
