anything there. would the vin number contain this information? if so where

do I have to go to decode it? I am aware of jacking up the rear end and

turning the drive shaft and counting the revolutions but I don't have access

to a jack right now and I am anxious to find out. TIA >>

try looking under your hood at the factory specs. My gear ratio is listed
there, also stamped on a metal tag on the rear diff cover.
