Another Axle Code Question?

Greetings,

New to the forum and the world of Fords.

I am working on a 1979 F250 4x4 front differential.

I removed the tag and its reads as follows: 3.54 EOTA JE 610063-1

From what I could find on the forum it’s a Dana 44 with a ratio of 3.54, am I correct? If so is this all the info I need when ordering a Ring & Pinion?

And also any idea where to purchase rebuild set with out breaking the bank?

<o>> </o>>

Thanks Dale

Hold on here... Are you sure that is not a 1980 axle or truck?


The number you gave is a 1980 F150 Dana 44
Confirm for your self -> http://www2.dana.com/pdf/X510-9.PDF

You'll need to let them know it's a "Reverse Spiral" or "High Pinion" Dana 44.
I like Spicer parts, but Yukon makes a cheap set.

If you can't find gear parts from a sponsor, then there is an ebay store called discountgearing that sells gear sets and parts for axles. They have over 2000 feedbacks and 100% positive rating. NO, I am not employed by them. A friend purchased a gear set for a jeep cherokee and was happy with the quality.
