sterling rear end help
okay so about a year ago i aquired a sterling 10.25 rear end that im going to be using for a 3/4 ton axle conversion on my89 bronco. i posted a thread asking how to determine the gear ration for the rear end. someone posted that if i crack open the dif cover the gear ratio should be stamped on the ring gear, well i finaly had the time to do that the other day and instead of finding a straight up ratio stamped on the ring gear i got this number e5tw-da-10-41-5jd, does anyone out there know how to determine the ratio from this number?
the truck this came of of was an 85, 86 f-250 the axle code was kinda smudged on the vin sticker but im sure it was either b5, or 35 those were the only two possibilitys i could gather for the axle code when i researched it the ratios for both were 4.10, the only difference was thatone was semi floating the other was full floating, which is what i have (full floating) can anyone help me determine this ratio, im hoping its 4.10
any help would be great thank you

Why not just rotate the pinion until the the axle turns one full turn? If it turns more than 4 revolutions, its a 410. I think they only came in 373 and 410. Just make sure both axles/tires rotate one full turn.
