Axle decode please

Can someone tell me what axle ratio I have on my 95 Explorer?
The code on the inside of drivers door says D4.
Also, how can I tell if I have the towing pkg? It did come with the rear wiring for trailer lights.

Thanks !

It's 3.73 Limited Slip. You have towing package. The thing I didn't like about what Ford did was not adding tranny cooler but your truck has towing package.

You find a table that correlates the axle code with the axle information. I've seen tables posted in internet forums like this one and in repair manuals, and I'm sure there are other places.
