Is there any way to tell what the factory gear ratio is? I bought the vehicle used. 2000 eddie 4 X 4, it has the factory ball for towing on the bumper and the air levelling suspension, but not sure what gears I have in the back.
 






On the inside of the drivers door there should be a white tag with your axel code on it.There should also be a tag on your back axel:)
 






heres a question to add to this topic, since Im new to Explorers..... what ratios did they offer? or if the changed the available ratios what was offered after 95
