You can post the codes from the safety certification lable, located on the driver cab "B" pillar, just below the door striker.

Then one of us can decode the codes for you.

Will only tell you what axles the truck had in it new though. But it's a start.

If the rearend has a cover with a plug, then it's a dana. If the front lock-out hub has a space between it and the wheel, then it's probably a dana 44 hd ttb.
