welcome to FTE 
it would be on the sticker on the drivers side door post. it will say axle code and then a number or number and letter under it. you could also jack up one side of the rear end put the tranny in neutral CHOCK THE WHEELS! and mark the tire and drive shaft, count how many times you have to turn the drive shaft for the tire to make 1 complete turn. 3 and a half turns is 3.50:1

Welcome to the site
Had you posted in the 87-96 truck forum you would have received the info sooner than you did.
This forum is for those topics that don't have a regular place to post them.
There is a VIN# decoder in the Tech articles.
https://www.ford-trucks.com/article/...r_Decoder.html
Access is through the link in the bar near the top of the page.
The rear axle code is NOT addressed in the Vin #, you will need to post all the info from the Rating plate sticker
