axle tech info

I've been bored all day today, so I've been writing up a little tech info on what axles came on ford 4x4s.

lemme know what ya think. I think it might help some newbie qs like "uh do i have a dana 60 under my f-150?" type questions.

Looks like a good start. Just out of curiosity, are you familiar with Billavista's axle tech articles over at Pirate?

Cool. I've looked at his 14bolt and Dana 60 front manuals.. they are _very_ informative. I'm trying to just cover the basics and go into depth about fords. Most people probably won't need to look at his, unless they were hardcore.. When I am finished, I'll probably link to his pages if someone wants more info..

the other thing I am trying to dig up are lists of axle codes for ford axles. I am trying to come up with a decent sized, accurate list. Most of the lists I've seen only cover early danas and late model (87+) axles, and not the in between. (I had to goto the ford dealer and have him look up the code in the old manual.. codes 33 and 35 are for the sterling 10.25, 3.54 and 4.11, respectively, if anyone cares).
