gear ratio

I have a 2001 4.2 v6 auto supercab. Where can I find out what my rear gear ration is? I am trying to determine my towing capacity.

Thanks

There is an axle code on your door tag. It will be something like 18, 19, or H9. Then click here for a decoder for the door tag. Good luck!

Perfect, great, brilliant! Thank you very much, it is exactly what I was looking for. Had no idea how to decipher those codes.
