Dana or 9in?

[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 14-Jun-01 AT 07:24 AM (EST)[/font][p][font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 14-Jun-01 AT 07:20 AM (EST)[/font]

Ok, here's todays stupid question from yours truely. Does anyone know where I can see a pics of the Dana and Ford 9in rearends? Or can anyone describe the difference to me? If i'm correct the 9in has the bolts on the front and there is a tag on the front and everything. And the Dana i really don't have a clue. I know, on my trucks, one fits the description of the first one i mentioned and the other is way different. It seems to be a bit bulkier in the front and doesn't have any bolts or studs on the front. And on the back there is a circle of bolts around and there is a drain plug with a big square head on it. Is that the Dana? Anyone know?

Thanks for the help guys. But now I'm left a little perplexed still. Is there another Dana rearend besides the one in the pic and the one on your webpage? Mine is similar to those, but different. The drain plug is the biggest difference I notice. Mine is on the drives side and it's very big and noticable, no way it wouldn't show up in a pic or diagram. I'll see what I can do about getting some pics of it so maybe ya'll can tell a little more what I'm talking about. Thanks again.
