Welcome to FTE!
F60 = F600 gas 4x2
D = 330 2V HD FT gas V8
C = Ontario Truck Plant
B63137 = 1967 series number
174 = 174 inch wheelbase
J = Red
F602 = F600 gas 4x2 20,000lbs GVWR
481 = I don't have the complete info for upholstery, seat type etc., or cab type in all cases. My guess here is standard cab.
A = New Process model 435 four speed transmission
62 = Timken model F106N Single Speed Rear Axle / 6.20-1 / 15,000 lbs. Rear Axle Capacity.
No front axle code. In '64 to '69 codes appeared only for optional front axles. Otherwise, it's a Ford standard axle, most likely 5,000lb capacity.
20000 = 20,000lbs GVWR
164 3800 = 164 certified net HP @ 3800 RPM
41 = Chicago District Code
If something doesn't match, let me know and I'll double check.

Thank you very much. The truck has a shifter with the split rearend option but it could have been installed after factory for sure. And it has a f500 hood which threw me off to. The engine was the main thing I needed info on. I really appreciate your help.

Does the speedometer show the correct speed in both high and low range, or show very fast in one range and correct in the other? If so, that pretty much tells you the axle was put in later. Very few people went to the trouble to put in the speedometer cable range splitter when adding a two speed rear.

You good on the two speed? There are Eaton videos available, as well as the "short version". It's important NOT to shift one going downhill.

Yup. Learned never to do that again when borrowing my grandpa's dump truck back in the 1990s. I tried to shift the differential going down a 6% grade with a bunch of switchbacks. Fortunately I was able to get it stopped. If I'd had a heavier load on it, I'd have been in trouble.
