Looks like 8.5 verify your rear has the same lugs in the same spots and start robbing parts keep your shims matched to where they came from to aide in setup. Don't tear in to the truck rearend immediately,get your parts together. Then I'll give some instructions on things to mark measure and make notes on to ease the setup.
