86 1/2 to 96 F350 monobeam axle is a dana 60, and a direct bolt in for a F250

Must be a Ford axle, 80 model up to 96 makes the swap easier.
I really like my 92 D 60 axle in my 86.

The 99 and up have different lug spacing 170 MM x 8.
The previous ones were 6.5" x 8.

You need the trac bar, trac bar bracket, tierods and new U bolts.
I did a spring re-place while mine was out.
I would also recommend you check the front shackle upper bushing, mine were clear gone when I pulled them down out of the frame.
