I think it's a 9.75 Visteon. Not positive though.

Could also be an 8.8. You'll have to crawl under the truck and check the tag on the diff cover. Post what you find and we'll decode it.

Edit- and it's definitely not a 9". They haven't used them in production in over 15 years.

With a 4.6L, it's almost certainly an 8.8". 3.55 is an 8.8 ratio, too.
