D60 options

I am looking for the infanous D60. I have a Blazer as well for parts. Is there any chance that the '79 Blazer I bought to part out has the D60 I am looking for?

How can I tell what axle is in the front of the truck?
Sorry guys I know it is chebby but still old school.

the big issue would be spring spacing, i am 99% sure that the old chebby's had a differnet spring center then the ford's did. as for if its a d60 or not, i'm not sure what they came with in 79. i know the few i worked on that were lifted were not 60's but they were from the 80's

and no, the blazer doesn't have one, but on page 1 there is a BOM (bill of material) info that may help you ID what it does have.
