What gear ratio?
I have a 2004 F150 Fx4. What is my rear gear ratio? Also I have been looking into getting a new elocker or something similar to help off road traction. Any advice or answer to my question?

My 04' FX4 has 3.55 limited slip from the factory. I have an early build (10/03 I believe) new body style FX4. I was wondering if the early 04' FX4's that came with 17's have 3.55 LS or maybe it's just the really early 04' builds?

Which I always consider Fx4's to have 17/18's, sometimes I forget about the 20s
So yes 2004-2005 would be 3.73. Ford offered the 2006's+ with 20s so the 3.55's would have to come into play here.
