Axle codes

I have no sticker on either door to tell of my rear end size and gears. I got the tag off the rear axle and it reads

Hummmm, what axle is it (8.8 or 9"), cause it seem that it should be a 4.10 LS, but i could be wrong.

I'll hazard a guess, and say it's 3.55. That bottom row of numbers probably reads 3.55 8 8(ring gear size)
