Check out your axle code on the door jamb if its 19 its a 3.55 non limited slip if its h9 that would make it a limited slip so if it has the letter and # LS just number is non 17 i think is 3.08 there is also a vin decoder in articles which matches the axle code to the rearend

Are you asking gear ratio or which rear axle do you have?
Rear axle is Ford 8.8
Gear ratio shoul be on a tag attached to the rear diff. Also should be on the door jam tag under axle code. When you get the code go to "Articles/Specs" at the top of this page and decode your info.

Rear axle codes found on VIN plates have to be decoded in the rear axle section (4000) of the Ford parts books. Ratios are not listed in a VIN decoder book.
