ME29 rear end

[875VA]

Do all year ME29 rear ends have the same gear ratio? I have a 4 lug ME29 from a early 90's EZGO with a 295 engine and a 5 lug ME29 from a 2005 EZGO with a 350 engine.
The only thing I do know is the splines on the outer ends of the axle shafts are not the same between the 2 axles. What i'm curious to know is if the inner splines would be the same and also if the ME29 had different axle ratios depending on the year.
I'm putting a 670 predator engine in my 2005 EZGO Industrial cart that's lifted with 26" tires and wouldn't mind a different gear ratio, especially if it's free by using the 4 lug ME29.

so I am no expert here but I did look through the parts manuals and the only different gear I could find came from a freedom model which had a 10.? gear ration

Hey VA, wouldn't seeing how many turns on the driven clutch it takes to turn the wheel one
revolution on each, tell if they are a different ratio? I'd think the 5 lugger would have the beef.

I could do that, I'll give it a try this weekend. But that won't tell me about the inner splines. I'll have to just pull a axle shaft and see if the other will slide it.
