1) Some say they have Dana 60 Front / Rear while others claim it must have Dana 60 Front / Dana 70 rear.
2) Some say they have original 460's while others say the biggest motor was a 400M for a 4x4, F150/F250/F350..
Heck if you do a search in the photo gallery section you will find all sorts of people that have their truck listed as a F350 4x4;s from years 1971 to 1979.
Yeah, I see that too in the galleries. The truth is the only year for the F-350 4x4 was 1979, and the biggest engine availible for the 4x4 model was the 400.
Only 2wd got a 460. I have seen some F150 2wd's that have 460's in them, but I don't know if they were availible from the factory that way.
I have also heard the D60/D70 debate. Some say it has to have a D60 front / D70 rear, others say it could be ordered D60 / D70 or D60 / D60.
