How do I know which rear end I have?
I have looked on the door stickers and tried to find a way to decode the VIN number. Am I gonna have to crawl under the truck to find out what it ratio it is? And how do I know if it is limited slip or not? Thanks

I have the H9 3.55 limited slip, that is the better one right? the one that is harder to get stuck or whatever. If I am wrong please explain it to me.

You can look on your differential housing cover bolt tag. It should have 3 sets of numbers. Two in a row and the third underneath. Example: Mine has 3L55, which is a 3.55:1 with limited slip. If you do not have the L, then you do not have limited slip. the other numbers are the gear ratio.

JGG,
You are the owner of a 3.55 NON limited-slip if your axle code is 19. that meens you have a one-wheel spinner.
Mark G,
If you have the axle code 18, then you have a 3.08 NON limited-slip axle.
May the wind always be at your back,
