Default You are right....

Just to expand a bit on other replies - F15A came with 16" wheels and 6/39 toothed diff (6.5:1 ratio), while the 3 tonner Fords (F60S and F60L) came with 20" wheels and 6/43 toothed diff (7.16:1 ratio). Ditto for Chev series - as Bob says the axles were designed to be interchangeable.

The MB C2 shows a ratio of 6.5 and the GM Major Assembly manual shows ratio as 6:39......... and 6:39 is what is usually stamped on the outside of the gear cluster and I remember now that this was previously discussed on the MLU at the "Tooth" count on the ring gear.
