Warranty #/ Decoder help
today my son and I bought a great 1974 F100 Ranger with the following options. PS, PB, front discs, tool box, dual battery trays, full chrome, cargo light, rear slider, 360, auto, two tone. The door tag states the following;
WB-133
Color-MY
Type-F107
Body- C4
Trans- G
Axle-08J
GVW- 05500
DSG- B69604
I would like to find out what all this means, specifically is the axle limited slip, type, gear ratio and what the DSG number is. Thanks all.

Hopefully the OP will chime in with which interior his truck has, black or ginger?

Great info, thanks so much. The interior is a brown color which is likely the Ginger color mentioned (doors, dash and seat). The floor is black vinyl. I was hoping the diff was a limited slip/posi, any idea cost wise to change this up? Also this truck will be restored to original and I cannot find a ginger/brown dash cover, etc in LMC/carpenter will they have to be painted or does someone sell a repro??
Sorry boys, lots of Q would the tranny be a C4 or C6.

HIO Silver- Yup there is a space between the C 4. I would post some pics but no luck yet, if you want to see them you can pm me and I will send through e-mail. I am still on cloud 9, took a 3 months of visits and friendship building to have him sell it to us.

Which engine? Engine code is the fourth character of the VIN. If its a 360 (Y),390(H), or 460(J) it will be a C6. 6cyl or 302 could be either C4 or C6, or someone could have swaped in an FMX trans.
AFAIK you'll have to dye the dash for the ginger color.

It is a 360 2barrel, which matches the VIN. Owner is the second owner, first was his good friend who passed away some time ago. He tells me the truck has the original engine and tranny with 87000 miles. Even has the original windshield!! From all accounts I believe what he is telling me. Kinda my barn/field find.
