Help with front axle ID
I bought a 76 Ford 3/4 ton with 4x4. I want to change the fuild inside the axle but I am not sure what kinda axle it is.
On the axle near the front cover are these numbers.
If you were looking at the cover.
2 on the upper left side
Diamond with some writing on the upper right side
4-8E on the lower left side
C38 on the lower right side
If you were looking at the drive line side
347 on the lower left side.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

mositso,
I am guessing you bought a 1976 F250 4x4 pickup. They usually had a Dana 60 axle. Should be a metal tag under one of the cover bolts with id numbers. If not Dana 60 has 10 bolts on a 12-1/8" cover with 35 spline axles.
A little more info as to the number of cover bolts and model of your truck will help us narrow your search.
