Axle Code 26?

I have recently acquired a 1964 F250 and I have been able to decipher much of the VIN number thanks to this website and Didgey Spec but I have not been able to find out what axle code 26. Does anyone know what this code is for? Also, what is the DSO 31 on the door tag. My truck has a wood bed on it. Is there anyway to tell from the door tag which bed came on it originally? Thanks for any help you can lend.

Also, what is the DSO 31 on the Warranty Plate?

No.
Welcome to FTE

AXLE 26 = Spicer/Dana 60 Rear Axle / 4.88-1 / 5,200 lbs. Rear Axle Capacity.

DSO 31 = Cincinnati OH Ford District Sales Office, where the original selling dealer ordered the truck from.
