Sterling 10.25 rear and Dana 60 front I think. Ratios are 3.55 or 4.10, maybe others.

Unlike the lighter trucks there could be one of a several different axles depending upon the GVWR of the vehicle, you need to check the ID tag on the door pillar to know what your truck is equipped with, could be a Dana 60, Dana70, or Sterling 10.25, and that's just the back axle.
