You could also have a Dana 61 on that truck. Dana 61's usually had pretty high gears, though, usually 3.07 or 3.31.

You say diferentials as in two, assuming you have 4x4 then you have a dana 60 rear, the d70 was not put in 4x4's, and the front is probably a dana 44, though a dana 60 could be optioned. You can check by simply measuring the axle tubes, a d60 is 3.12" and a d44 is 2.75". The d60 front also has the bigger hubs. Of course, the truck is 25 years old and anyone could have put anything in it by now. Regarding the truck in general, thats a good model, of course, most people around this site, love em all...I know I do. Good luck with it. -Dale
