What does Ford axle code 27 mean?

Hi, I need to oil my axle, but I’m not sure what it takes. I see the sticker in my door has Ford axle code 27. Can you tell me what that means?

Hey, there! I sure can tell you what
Ford
 axle code 27 means! Based on manufacturer charts, it looks like you have a non-limited slip differential with a 3.31 ratio. According to Ford, you should use 75W140 Non-Limited Slip Synthetic Gear Oil on a non-limited slip differential. Of course, you should complement your truck’s routine maintenance with an annual review of your
car insurance
