Question Rear End ?

Hello.. Im just wondering.. I have a 12 Bolt rear end on my truck..
Its a 1980 Scottsdale.. Is this the stock rear end.. or should it have a 10bolt?..

I have not had the truck all that long and I am still learning all this stuff..

thanks.

12bolt would be stock for a 1980.

Have you looked to see if the code is in the glovebox? The standard ratio is 3.08:1 for the 12bolt.
