Either the axle code in the door or the tag on the rear end attached to one of the cover bolts

Same here. I just looked and I have 3.08 gears. Everyone is telling me 3.55 because 4.10 takes top speed away but it will snap your head back when you get on it. I don't need top speed so I'm getting 4.10s to spin my 33s. If your looking to get more off the line without loosing too much top end get 3.55 or 3.83
