There is a code on the drivers door tag for axle. Some one will jump in and post what those codes mean or you can do a search on the subject. Or, you can jack up the vehicle and see how many times the drive shaft rotates to one time of the wheel.


there is probably a tag attached to your rear end housing that has it as well.
