Axle code 33

I've got a 1983 F250 (6.9-T19) the vin tag says axle code 33 which would be a Dana 61 rear with 3.54 gears. Is this the same for 1980-86? I jacked up the truck and counted turns of the driveshaft but I can't tell if it's 3.54 or 3.73, and Id rather not remove the diff cover and count teeth...
