Anyone know where I can find these?

The window sticker doesn't tell me the rear end ratio, if it has limited slip, a block heater, front plate bracket and stuff like that...

Thanks.

Miekk, if you look on the rear differential, there should be a metal tag on one of the bolts. Look at that tag and you should see something along the lines of "373" or "373LS" or "355", etc. The number is the gear ratio, ie, 373 is 3.73. The LS on the end (if you have it) indicates that it has a limited slip unit installed. Your other option is to look in the driver's door jam and on the build sticker there, you will find something labeled "AXLE" and underneath it a 2 character code. Once you get that code, you can figure out the gear ratio and whether it has a limited slip unit installed. The H codes are limited slip, the L codes are non-limited slip.

Miekk, post your VIN. The window sticker can tell you pretty much everything you need to know.
