gear ratio tags missing

... so I don't know what axle gear ratios my truck has. It's an 83 F-150, inline six, 4x4, 4-speed (granny low). The data plate on the door jamb says "trans A" and "axle 19". Anyone know what this means?

Thanks

A is a 4 speed New Process, and the 19 is a 3.55 regular Ford rear axle.
Per the 83 Ford Specifications BOOk.
