You can also check by removing the differential cover and counting the ring gears and pinion gears and dividing the larger number by the smaller number. This will give you the correct ratio of your rearend. I hope this helps.

Sorry i didn't look harder at the archives though, this one was pretty well answered already. Someone said there was a stamp on the pumpkin somewhere that would tell me. Does anyone know where the stamp usually is? | | |
