axle code id needed please
I was hoping somebody could decode this rear axle tag. I may be buying it for some parts and would like to know what I'm getting before I pay for it.
S814P
55 8 8 8K12
Truck is late 80's style. I don't know year or vin code as I was checking it out behind a local bodyshop with a flashlight at 11:30 at night.
Also how are you guys decoding these numbers? I found the tech article for the door tags. Did I miss one for the axle tags.

It's an 8.8 open diff with 3.55 gears.
On the 2nd line where it says "55" it is suppose to be "3 55", or "3L55" if it's a limited slip.
The other numbers tell you what plant it was made at.
Primary rig is Green Thunder:
95' F-150 XLT 4x4, 302, 5 spd, MSD 6A, Flowmaster American Thunder Exhaust, Sunroof, Clear corners w/ Diamond headlights, CD player with 2 10" subs and some 32" BFG Muds
.
That's it for mods now, saving for a Stang. Check out my Gallery for a look-see.
