Snow Plow Package?

I just recently got my trucks build sheet. I says that the truck came with a snow plow package. The truck had a plow on it when I got it but the original owner took the entire plow and everything off. But on the build sheet there is nothing about a Dana 60 front axle. Is the dana 60 front part of the snow plow package? Also it had a mud and snow package with spare and 4.10 rear ratio. A 351m with a np435 and a np205 drive the beast. So what do you all think about hte front axle? Dana 60?

if it's five lugs which i think rhey all are then it's a dana 44 if it is an 8 lug then it'll be a dana 44 HD, but i doubt you have that, i think the snow plow package just gave you have duty shock, dual shock, and heavier duty springs and the 4.10 gearing

My 79 F250 4x4 Snofighter came with a Dana 60 front and rear also dual sway bars, helper springs, dual batteries High output heater and plow (unsure if plow came with it or just all the controls)
When I got my build sheet it said the same thing.

A little off topic but how do you go about getting one of these build sheets??

You can look at the covers on the front and rear axle. If the front is a 60 then it will have the same shape and bolt count as the rear. The 44 is visibly smaller.
