There should be a factory sticker,(if this still done), on the under-side
of the hood. It lists paint code, tranny, rear ratio, limited slip, etc.
My 94 SLT is this way. Hope it helps.

There should be a small metal tab attached to one of the bolts on the
rear
differential cover. It will say either 3.9 (3.92 ratio) or 3.5 (3.55
ratio)
