Your front axle is a LP Dana 30 and your rear is either a Dana 35 or a 29 spline Chrysler 8.25. Do you have ABS? If so, then you have the Dana 35. Otherwise, take a pic of the rear differential and post it up or someone will post a pic of what the covers all look like.

In the rear,If you have an 8.25 it will have a flat lip in the bottom of the pumpkin, no lip is D35. the front is D30.
