hello, new member with a question about rearends
If anyone can give me a great way of identifying a dana 44 vs dana 60 in the front of a 79 F-250 or 350, and dana 60 vs dana 70 in the same rig

thanks
sean

I really don't know... I guess that you may get a hint browsing the Ford page.

No, it can be true, but not a rule. Alot of the soalid axle trucks used either 44 or 60s. There should be a small stanp on the right side of the diff. Do a quick google search for dana axle identifiaction. Bolt pattern is slightly different between the 2. Opening up the diff can tell you for sure.
