rear end gear ratio question

rear end gear ratio question
-1974
-f100
-2wd
-360
-Borg Warner t18
I just rebuilt the engine and resealed the transmission. When I took the drive line off, I noticed a lot of play in the rear differential. I am going to either replace the spider gears myself or buy one completed, but I wanted opinion what gear ratio would be good for cruising speeds of 70-75 mph and still be able to tow heavy loads. I currently can drive 70-80 without the engine screaming, but I'm unsure of the current gear ratio in it.
