77 F100 rear axle code

Hey guys I’m new here. I have a 1977 F100 xlt ranger and my axle code is 46. Anyone know what rear and and gear ratio that is? Locking or open? I’ve searched and gotten multiple different answers. Maybe I’m missing something. Thanks,
Parker

Parker,
You posted in the 1948-1956 truck section. According to your information you have a1977 truck so you need to post in another forum, not this one.

Good luck.

This should help. We do occasionally look for other than stock rear axles here.
