Default question about label for gearing

I just recently bought a 2007 Ram 1500, and I'm not sure of what gearing the truck has. I've looked in all the door jams, under the hood, and in the glove box. My dakota had label inside the glove box that showed the paint code, the gearing, and other info, but I can't find anything like that on the Ram. Is this label just hidden really well, or do I need to go to the dealer with the vin number? Thanks for any help.

You can email dodge with the VIN instead of going to the dealership

As mentioned you can email using the link below for a build sheet request. per feedback from others the turn around can sometimes be as quick as 24 hours.

What a pain, I guess the bean counters thought that little label just cost too much. I'm glad Daimler is gone.

My gear ratio was stamped on a label on the rear axle.

Your build sheet wont tell you if you have an LSD though. It will only say Anti Spin Diff for both Open and LSDs I believe. I don't remember exactly
