2000 Excursion - Is this my axle information?

While changing the fuel filter today, I decided to look for my axle information to see if I could confirm what gear ratio I have for fun. I found this sticker on the front axle. Is this what tells me what I have, and if so, what do I have lol. I looks like 4.30 gears and not limited-slip. Am I correct, or is this sticker for something else. The only other tag I could find was on the rear diff and it said something about synthetic gear oil only or something like that (I didn't take a picture). Anything I should know or consider with this information.

On the rear axle, if it's not already gone, there should be a separate plate bolted on the pumpkin. You can read it like in this video.

Thank you. I relooked around the rear diff and found the other tag hiding. Hard to read, but it looks to me I have the 4.30 with limited slip.

Sweet! Those deeper gears make the 6.8 so much more fun.

That's what I've read you say many times in reading threads, made me a bit more excited to confirm I have the 4.30's! Hoping to get it running correctly to be able to enjoy it! Making progress, slowly, I think...
