vin decode?

hey guys
i understand how the vin decoding works, but i dont know where to find that number that gives me (wheelbase/color/gvw/body/trans/axle). i have the rating plate on the inner door area, but that just tells me the axle weights. all four of my trucks are the same too, no info on trans/axle ect. what am i missing and where can i find that info?
