Locking hubs

Good evening all, quick question, will factory front locking hubs from a 89 f250 fit on a 95 dana 60? Ive read the 50's have 30 spline axles and the 60's have 35. Can anyone confirm.

I have auto hubs on my 94 and ones broken and rattles all the time but I have an old 89 f250 rolling chassis with factory locking hubs and wanted to swap them.

any help would be great.

I've always heard that Dana 50 and Dana 60 used the same hubs. And I know that when I ordered new hubs for my '97 F-250HD that it took the same hubs as a '97 F-350 (Dana 60). But I don't know how many splines my axle has, and I don't know if '89 to '94 (or '95) are the same.

Also I assume you know that some F-250s used Dana 44HD front axles which do not use the same hubs as Dana 50/60 and that you know that your F-250 has the Dana 50.

I did know some were different and used 44 outters. I guess its worth a shot. I can always order a set of superwinch or warn hubs.

As long as the 89 has a D50 and NOT the D44hd, they will fit. Easiest way to tell a dana 50 from a d44 is the diameter of the hub
D50 is 4.00"
D44 is 3.25"

And dont waste your money on the Warns. The Superwinch are 1/2 the cost and the same quality if not better

That's super helpful, thanks. I'm running superwinch hubs on my sd and my excursion just cause for both sets I paid what a set of warn hubs cost.
