Alternator 95 or 130?

I was looking a getting a replacement for my 01 Supercrew and it lists a 95A or a 130A. Did they really offer both in the 97-04 F Series? I remember in my 96 the 95 amp they had was not enough power. How can I tell which one I have in there now?
Thanks
Rich

Does it have the towing package? I'm pretty sure that a screw will be 130amp.

It doesn't have the tow package...at least I don't believe it does....IT had an add on class 3 hitch.

Either way, I would go with the 130 amp unit. It's better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it. If you ever add an aftermarket stereo, lights, CB, or anything else...you'll wish you had it.
