F250 4x4
360 with a 2 Barrel Carb

Hope I got that right. I'm sure Dennis (Mill1ion) will correct or concur.

Graffe, (or whoever)

How about this VIN:

Does it tell you what differential is in it?

Does this?

Not 100% (I'll need some backing on this one). But I believe you are running a Dana 70 with a 4.10:1 ratio.
