it's usually stamped right in the webbing that goes from the pumpkin to the axle tube. more than likely you've got a D-60 rear an D-44 front.

The code should be a buck tag on a bolt near the diff & the other is on the rating plate around the driver side door

after building and swapping and what not you begin to learn Ford's ways of doing things and will learn what year trucks have what components. although there is always a twist in there somewhere.

axle tag isn't always a surefire way to know....some ppl swap the tags out. it's best to open it up and see what's inside...become familar with it
