Russel,
A quick way to see what axle you have on your 4X2 is raise it on a
hoist. There will be a piece of tape circling the axle tube on the
passenger side right next to the right rear wheel brake backing plate.
This tape will give you the part number of the axle, the ratio and wether
or not it is TracLoc or Open Case.
For example, if you have a 9 1/4 axle with 3.55 gears and a Open Case
the part number would 52070180AA with 9" brakes.
It would be 52070296AA with 3.55 gears and TracLoc and 9" brakes.
If you have a 8 1/4 axle with 3.55 gears and Open case the part number
would be 52069638AE with 9" brakes or 52070291AA with the TracLoc.
There are additional part numbers for trucks with 10" brakes and different
ones for the trucks equipped with the handling package with rear sway
bar.
Take a look before it gets to dirty under there. If you can get the part
number
I can give you the axle specs.
