Question Ford 8.8 Rear Axle

Is anyone familiar with the Ford 8.8 rear axle? I have it in my YJ, which I bought it (the whole Jeep) from somebody that didn't have a clue as to what was in it. (also bought it CHEEP)

Anyway. The rear end is a Ford 8.8. I have identified that much but I am curious if anyone knows how to tell by the code numbers on it what ratio it has or even positraction maybe? Thanks for any/all help.
