Just as a heads up, whenever you post a question please include all of the information you can... What kind of truck, year, model, whether original to the best of your knowledge, and any other pertinent information that might make it easier to answer your question...

I can't help with the casting numbers but here is a thread on figuring out the ratio if that is what you are wanting to know.
