Since I don't know what car or truck you have I would suggest asking the dealer to decode your number for you.

Don't know what you got but sometimes they'll place a little tag from the factory that'll tell you on the rear, it may be gone or rusted off etc. Another way is to put the car in nuetral, SAFELY jack the car's rear-end up and spin the tire while looking at the driveshaft. If the driveshaft turns 3 and almost 4 times per the wheel making one complete turn, you probably have 3.73s etc... Maynot get you the EXACT number but it'll get ya close.
