Axle Ratio & Identification

Axle identification can be determined by axle code on Safety Certification Label on left door pillar. In addition, Dana axle assemblies use a metal identification tag stamped with gear ratio and diameter is secured to axle housing by 2 bolts. See Fig 1. If Dana model 80 axle is equipped with limited-slip differential, gear ratio will have the letter "L" in the number.
