79 was the last year for the D60 in the F series, the vans used it up until at least 03 and may still use it.

Some of the SD's use Dana 80's.

And I can't help it Rodney, but it's not Sterling. It's Visteon, Sterling is just the location of the plant.

The 10.25" axles that come out of the Ford axle plant in Sterling Heights Mi. were called "sterling axles" long before Ford sold the plant to Visteon in 99.
