d60 high pinion, king pin,78- 79 ??????

Maybe? Measure the spring perches. Anything later then 79 will be wider. Also the 79 d60 has the longer short side axle tube and pot is more centered.
By the way 'ol blue' in your gallery needs the double stacked lift blocks removed under front axle. Little scary. Also steering angles look steep. Crossover should be on the list.
Is this the axle you want to put under it?

Well if it was under a 73-79 and springs were not outboard(sign of a later axle) and it's kingpin then it's a 78/79 d60.
Next swap ditch the blocks, go crossover steering and might as well flip the front u bolts and make new top plates so the nuts are at the top for clearance. And upgrade to a 5/8 ubolt.Youll have to notch the driver side gusset for u bolt to sit in.
