Try looking in you glove box. There should be a white sticker in there. If not try your door jams.

Could also be a sticker on top of the left axle housing, visible through the wheel well.

Lead, follow, or get out of the way

My truck has it on the underhood decal.

Most likely you have either 3.21 or 3.55.

dont forget since it's a 4x4
the gears in the front axle
will also have to be replaced
to match the rear's new ratio.
