Gear Ratios

I have a 93 f-150 that i am converting into a 4x4 and i was woundering if the gears would match the front end of the donour truck(1989). I have the id tags off of both of them and too k them down to ford and the guy told me that my rear end is 3.08 and the front is 3.07 and also said that this is normal and ok. Is he right. It is a danna 44 with a borg warner 13-45 tansfer case onto a m5 od tranny(same tranny in both trucks). Is there any other problems that i might run into. What do i nee to get my 4x4 dash lights working. Thanks

There is always a slight difference between front and rear ratio. The dash lights could be anything from inside the t-case to a bulb. Get a muiltimeter and start testing.
