No.
AXLE 29 = Dana 70 / 5.87-1 / 7,400 lbs. Rear Axle Capacity.

Some 1961/62 F350's have Timken B140 rear axles, some have Dana 70 rear axles.

ALL 1963/84 F350's have Dana 70 rear axles except 1979 F350 4WD that have Dana 60's front & rear.

No F350 of any year came w/a Rockwell rear axle.

It's hard to say what has changed in the last 50+ years. The warranty tag describes a 1963 F350 equipped with the standard Dana 70. Could be sheet metal moved to an older chassis/drive line or the axle was switched. If the tag in post #7 was removed from the rear axle of the truck in which the warranty tag was posted then the OP should refer to that axle as a Timken axle not a Rockwell. The stylized "TDA" triangle is Timken Detroit Axle the tag is clearly stamped B140 this series axle would be correct for a 61-62 (probably back same back through the 50's).

"poppatello" can you offer any details on the blue F350 photo you provided?
Where can that truck info be found, if there is a thread within this forum?
Thank you.

And good luck with the 'subject vehicle' mechanical restoration, topic of this thread, and please provide more photos.
Pete
