Your door tag should have an axle code that you can use to find out the type and gearing using the link that Chance posted.

For example, my rear axle code is 84. This means that my truck has a 7.5 rear end geared at 3.45 and if it was a 4x4, the front would also be 3.45.

two wheel drive - 7.5"
four wheel drive - 8.8"

I disagree. I have seen 4x4 trucks with 7.5 rear ends.

The kind with a differential in the middle instead of off to the side.

older? because i was referring to the 93-97 generation and his engine? i could be wrong though

ya look at the sticker on the inside of the driver's door.. my 93 XLT 4x4 4.0L has an 8.8 L/S..

93+

I don't check older axles because they're not the right size for my Ranger.

While 2001-up that might be true on a 1995 anything other than a 4.0 will have a 7.5" axle.

my 97 4x4 came with a 7.5 currently being switched to 8.8 explorer style

whoa. i could have sworn that 4x4s came stock with 8.8's...or am i just stupid.

Depends on the engine, anything with a 4.0L will have an 8.8, all 4cyl and most 3.0L trucks use the 7.5.

screw it, let's just all drop rockwells in, front and back
