Do I have 59 Rear diff or something else?

I couldn't find this part number or a pic of it in the 1957/63 truck catalog, but it was revised so many times, it could have been dropped.
It's also possible that the carrier assy aka 'pumpkin' aka 'drop out center section' from one of these cars has been swapped into your 1959, usually performed to change the ratio.
The rear axle ID tag is located under one of the bolts (originally at 5 o'clock) that retains the carrier to the housing. But by now, many are missing.

Not that I would ever dare to add anything to what NumberDummy has said, but here is a link you might find interesting.
Ford nine inch differential cases +
I am sure though that the site does not have a great proof reader and "specifics", geru that this site has so reader beware!

I'll betcha they're 5.50" cuz 8" (introduced in 1962 midsized cars), has a 4.50" bolt circle, installed in Falcon/Comet/Fairlane/Mustang V8's initially. Used thru 1980 in Granada/Monarch.

Now that you mention it, my uncle had a donor truck piled up in his back yard and I think he may have changed gears in the back but not the front. I won't be doing any off roading for awhile but thanks.

So far without actually reading numbers on the carrier it looks like a 9" housing with a
quote: "Standard 9 inch" C7AW-E carrier along with a D2AW-A pinion support with guard. Thanks again.
On a side note I got the ballast resistor in and it fired right up. All thats left to debug electrically is the heater and dome light. Took it for test ride #3 to see if I fixed the speedo cable and wala it works. The needle is bouncy as heck so it's useless for mph but the odometer is working.
