Front Dana
Okay i have a 76 F-250 hiboy after looking thru a couple of books it seems that i have a D44HD but upon actually looking at the front axle it is stamped 44 but also it is stamped 60f also a site said that a D60 would have 4" diameter hubs which i do maybe 5".But the Books say D60's weren't used as front ends til 78 so is very confused on what is actually the right axle in my truck and help will welcome.

The h.d. has the big hubs. l. d. used the 1/2 ton style hubs. Thats the only difference I know of.

yeah this pickup had a 70 rear and 60 front, when we blew the rear end up yeah some how you can do that, we thought it wasa 60 so we ordered parts for it and they were wrong, then we checked the tags and it was a 70 rear, then we blew the front up, and it was a 60, i dont know if you could of ordered it with a 70 and a 60.
