Plug your 1982+ VIN into Ford's decoder; it's not perfect but, without a 1982 factory service
manual, is prolly the best you're gonna find IMHO:

For your 1980, the best I know is the factory shop manual (somebody out here may be able
to help you with that). This is because the entire US automotive industry went to
standardized, 17-character VINs I believe in 1981; prior to that, each manufacturer had their
own VIN format.

Assuming the Ford online thing doesn't match what you have for your 1982, describe the
differences you see and maybe people here can help figure it out.

I don't recall ever seeing any 3-digit axle codes before?
Or, am I confused?
