Question Rear Axle Code

I have a rear axle code of 01 on my spec plate. 1960 F-100. Anyone know the axle ratio this applies to?

Tim's correct, just wanted to make sure you realize that it's an open diff(at least from the factory). Considering you have a cleveland swapped, the gears might have been changed.

Based on the amount of crud covering the diff, I doubt it. I am probably going to swaop those to the 3.25 as recommended. Thanks for the help.
