[size=16px]This axle is on FB. Myself and the seller are unsure if this is Discs or drum. He said he thinks it came out of a 78/79 F150. I need a new HP center section and covert my EB to Discs without breaking the bank. Are the hubs disc or drum? Thanks Chuck[/size]

 

My vote is discs without the rotors, caliper brackets and dust shields.
A better picture would help.

 

Thanks for you response and pictures. I believe you are right. Thanks

 

I doubt that it's a '78 or '79 though. The disc brakes started in '76 on the 4wd trucks, and that's fore sure a ball-joint open-knuckle Dana 44, but the axle tubes look small to me, and the ends and C-bushing pads and steering yokes are not cast parts. They're welded on.
Look at the trackbar bracket and then compare it to John89's cast piece that's integrated into the C-bushing pads.

You can verify for sure that they're disc knuckles (they do look like it to me too though) by having the seller take a picture of the spindles where they bolt on to the knuckles behind the hubs. If they are disc brake parts they have 5 attaching bolts. If they are drum brake parts they have six bolts.
