Any ideas as to meaning?1965 F100 could have a 9" rear axle without Limited Slip. Or a Dana 44 or Dana 60.2 rear axle with Limited Slip. Dana's have an inspection cover, 9 does not.
AXLE code stamped (2nd line-far right) on the Warranty Plate, decodes to the type of rear axle, ratio, with or without limited slip, and its capacity.
Warranty Plate located on the left door face below the latch.
There is no standard ratio. 1965 F100 w/a 9" rear axle, 3 M/T = Most common ratios: AXLE codes: 07 = 3.25-1 / 08 = 3.50-1.
My favorite show on the Food Channel is Restaurant Impossible. This thread is turning into Rear Axle Impossible!
Scroll down to see the 9" & Dana ID tag examples.

Where are the numbers and any others I should find to hlp, I know truck is all original I had engine rebuilt few years back purrs great & Ez on the gas, had fun outfitting with new (cone) air intake on my one barrel impressed the parts house guys that thought it would only work on imports! 
plenty of room under the hood adds nice look <es the carb cool off compared to the old "pan" filter it had would trap heat and vapor lock.
