Default What size rear end is in my 95 Stang GT

Is it an 8.8? My gears are the stock 2.73's and my dif cover is bent and leaks a bit. I want to upgrade to 3.73's and get a new plate and came across this...

"ford 8.8 out of a 97 explorer with 160,000km. It has disks, 31 spline shafts, 3.88 gears, and a posi lock. has all the ebrake cables, and brake lines, and the calipers.

Was going to put it into my YJ but never got around to it.
$450obo"



Would this work in my stang? and would the 3.88 gear ratio be pretty good?
