Stock Rear 98 X

98 X 4.0 OHV 4x4 Autotrans 4-door with towing (bumper hitch) package

off the top of my head, i think my door tag reads 8-D58. Under the tranny topics, D5 is the L/S 3.73. Correct? What does that 8 mean?

Did the towing package include 4.10 gears?

Sorry this is my first 4x4 and I'm a complete noob. Thanks for the clarification - Monte

So according to this, the D5 is a 3.73 LSD, the 8 probably just means 8.8, but I'm not 100% on this.
