IF this is an F-250, it should have exacltly as you suspect. 44 front, 60 rear. A 60 could be optioned for the front in a couple of ways. Easiest way, you can measure the axle tubes, 44 is 2.75" and the 60 is 3.12". There are numbers cast into all our dana,s but they can be hard to find. Most of them it is cast into the webbing between the coverplate and the axle tube. (Often right under the spring u-bolt) Some it is found on the snout behind the pinion yoke, ALL of em, it is hard to see as they fill with grime over the years. good luck with it. -Dale

A 44 has a 3 1/4" hub and a 60 has the 4" hub.
