There should be more to it than that. Make sure you're not missing anything under some corrosion or something.
 






Might also just wanna look on the driver's door sticker in the block on the bottom of the sticker marked AXLE. There should be a 2 character code (either 2 numbers, or a letter and a number) and it's a sure fire way to find out what axle you have...provided that the door or the gears have not been changed previously. Then take that code and go here to find out what it denotes:

Try this link Ranger Station

you are missing the gear ratio in the numbers, you have the ring gear, date and plant made in.
 






Thanks :)

Yes, the door sticker helped out! She is 3.55, she will be ready to run this weekend, the exhaust is being put on her now.....can't wait....

Where do you go wheeling?
NJ here usually head north to the rocks, some go south to the sand and water, What do you like?
 






Not here :)

Right now…. Any place but here, I live in the DC area but it’s not by choice, the Air Force put me here. Now don’t get ,me wrong, I love the armed forces, however, the DC area is not the first choice for this Wisconsin native.
 






is a 4 hour drive to NJ or Paragon in PA too far for you to drive for a weekend?
I'd like to wheel with more Rangers then all the jeeps that think their 4x4 are all that.
