It's got a Dana 44 front axle and a Ford 8.8" rear axle. For the ratios, we'll either need the info from the tag on the axle, or the axle code from the VIN plate (in the driver doorjam).

MOST newer broncos came with 3.55s from the factory. Bigric mentioned where you can find the axle codes.

As mentioned above where you can find the code. These are codes from a '96 Bronco. I don't know if this will help you out with your '93 Bronco.

Code Ratio
12 2.73
18 3.08
16 3.73
17 3.31
19 3.55
H9 3.55 Limited Slip
24 3.54
25 4.10

The stock rear 8.8 gear ratio is 3.55 and the stock front Dana 44 gear ratio is 3.54. There are tags mounted with bolts on the housings that have the ID codes on them to confirm. I forget what the codes are.
