Dana Axle Identification

[matthon]

1984 Dodge Ram, it has a 2wd cab, big lift, and a W250 chassis, from what I can determine.

Are both rear and front Dana 60s?
Dana 70s?

The rear has a cover with a rubber plug, and I want to order one with a threaded plug that is higher, seems low to me.

I checked Denny's, only one in stock is $225, ouch.

Anyone have a part# for a inexpensive cover?

60 or 70 should be cast into the pig, right in one of those corner support "wings" where the housing tube starts.

I take it the rear is a Dana 60, (60), and the front is a Dana 60, (60 F).

The rear is a full float, need to order axle seals, so I'll measure for those.

Apparently there are 2 different size axle tubes and corresponding axles, as there are 2 different size axle seals.
