There's only 3 ratios available for the Mk6 "non-Dana" Transits, 4.63, 5.13 & 5.14. Some people go to the effort of fitting a Mk7 Dana...9 ratios available. Getting the disc brakes and ABS working with them can be an issue if your Mk6 has ABS.

You arn't limited to mk6... mk2 to mk6 all fit. In addition to Knobbys list there is a 5.8, but nobody in their right mind would fit that unless they were driving up mountains towing a heavy trailer!

4.63 is the least revvy ratio you can get for your axle
