Camper Special Axles?

Just wondering if there rare or not? There on a 1976 Ford F-250 XLT Camper Special with the 460 big block.

Thanx,

If it is a 9in I bet they are 31 spline and I say it is limited slip if you do a
search you will fined lots of info. There are ways to decode it here, does the
rearend have a tag. There is a number/letter inside the door jamb.how many lug nuts,could be heavy duty,could be a dana 60?

If it's a 4WD, the front end could be a 44 or a 60, but I'd guess it would be a closed-knuckle drum brake unit. Some mud guys like closed knuckle, but I think they are less valuable money-wise. Camper Special might automatically have a heavier-duty front end (read: 60). 'Course, I might be wrong about all this, too! If I am, please go easy on me!

The axle is nothing special, same axle as the std F-250. It's the sway bars, dual batteries, camper wiring, etc.... that makes a camper special, a camper special.
