Thank you

V = Kentucky Truck Plant

B75757 = 1976 numerical series, March 1976 production

176 = 176 inch wheelbase

M = Wimbledon White

F660 = F600 gas, 4x4, 21,700 lbs GVWR

J = Ford 5,000 lb capacity front axle, with power steering. (neither MPC or shop manual give ratio--you'll have to check the axle itself for model number etc)
