I think you are asking about the number that you need for the "turtle" that bolts to the torque tube.
You will need to find out your rear end ration first, and then you can determine if you need a 18, 20, or 24. These are the numbers cast into the top housing of the speedo gear at the torque tube.
I believe there is a chart in the chassis parts catalog.
