how to find build date.

i need to order calipers for a 200 F350, and need build date. unfortunately, i do not have the warranty plate on the "B" pillar anymore.
is ther any way to retrieve the build date from the VIN?

Look for a sticker on the driver's door jamb and see if it's listed there.

i don't have the truck, just the rear axle.
it is in a 2004 truck, and now needs calipers. but i do not remember if the axle came out of an early or late model truck. i do have the vin though.
2000 had two different rear calipers, depending on date of manufacture.
