Sterling axle question

Is there any difference in a 10.5 from a 05 to a lets say an 02/03? I know from what I've seen the older ones the one caliper sits on the front side of the axle. Also did they put the 10.5 in e250 vans as well and will they fit the f250?

Want to say, the 05-up are wider. Plus, they install the front able as well to achieve the coiled susoension

Thanks for the reply, that's what I was coming up with that they are wider.

Can anyone tell me if I was to get an axle that has the caliper on the front side of the axle, is it as easy as changing my bracket to that axle where they hang off the rear or do you have to pull out the axle shafts to change the bracket?

P.S. If you can tell my rear axle is going out
