That´s depends of Your intention with the truck, I have been told that all SCANIA with hub reduction has 3,50:1 ratio in rear, and I think it´s the truth.
What we do when this trucks was common and we want a faster truck was ass follow, demont the hub cover and weld the sprockel as they can´t move, put the cover back and You have a 3,50 reduktion.
You can also demont the whole hub reduktion and replace it with a special hub cap wich is bolted in the hub and the drive shafts splines fitting in the cap. The problem is to find this cap today.
The last alternative is to change the rear axle, it´s no big deal.
