What axle is it?

Lookin at at a 2004 F250 4x4. What solid axle is up front? Dana 60? Do they use the same one on the F350? Also if it says the axle is rated for 5200lbs, isn't that the spring capacity's rating?
Sorry for all the questions, just trying to get more educated.

2004 F250 would be the DANA 60. 99 and 2000 used a DANA 50.

Thanks MadMedic20, does the F350 also use the Dana 60? I know the older ones did.
Thanks
