I think most all dana 60's would be 31 spline. Not sure if they offered anything else. Since it has floating hubs, just remove the 6-8(?) bolts and pull the axle and count them. Easy to do.

As for ratio, someone needs to chime in on the codes. Did you look for the axle tag?? It will tell you everything you need.
