Need front axle decoded
I've been searching this forum to find answers, but I'm not 100% sure what I've got. I'm wanting to replace the lock out hubs, (Warn of course), and don't want to get the wrong one's.
The following is the information that I have:
1985 F-250 4X4 6.9 diesel 4 speed manual
GVWR 8600 lb
Front 3850 lb
Rear 5878 lb
Axle 73
Tag on front axle reads:
3.54 E4TA AKB
610229-2
I know it is a TTI Dana something, either D44, D44hd, or D50.
The Warn site also asks if it has a standard suspention or heavy duty.
Thats what I really need to know to get the right part #
Any help here would be greatly appreciated

You have either a Dana 44HD or a Dana 50. Both are TTB axles.
The easiest way to ID the axle is to look at how the wheel fits around the hub body. The 50 will completely fill the hole; the 44 is smaller than the wheel opening.

Thanks to both for your replies!
With what andym says it's most definatly a 44.
If it's an HD or not it may not matter on the hubs.
I've got 2 choices, 31 spline axles, (heavy duty suspension) or 19 spline (standard suspension).
What I need to do I guess, is just lift it up, pull the hub off and count the splines. (there is no 'dah' smily)
It is good to know what you got though.
Thanks again!
