Number on knuckle looks like a Gen Motors #. Any other numbers? Hub looks like a Ford # (B in the 50's - 1st used). Bill will have more info.

The hub looks like it says BUDD as in Budd wheels, the truck wheel manufacturer.

I see the "BUDD" now. What are these parts off of Robert? Your 73 F250?

Hi George,

parts are off a built up '78 4x4 coaster bus that i am touring australia in. It's fully engineered, fitted with a 350chev and a lovely old thing...

i've been told it's from a '73 F250 but i have my doubts as the wreckers over here keep scratching thier heads.... it could also be jeep or ih... diff is dana44 with a 22tooth axle....

it's been raining a bit over here, today should be able to get under it to pull the diff numbers

many thanks for your helps, ive been grounded for several weeks now....
