These are from my phone. They are driver's side drop.
Yep definitely 99-04 Superduty, the front could be a 50 they used them in some trucks from 1999-2002 (I think)
It's def. a 60 front. Not a bad axle. Just have to switch to a t-case out of a 88-98 ifs truck for the driver drop.

Just thinking about your rig yesterday and was wondering if you made any progress? Good to hear you are working on it.
I voted LS since it is your money we are spending and not mine!!!

The guy with the axles also has the transfer case. A 241 I believe.
If you don't mind me asking, how much are you paying for all this?

Hes asking 1200 for the axles and case
Just an fyi, up here I sell that pair for $400 plus the t-case for $150.

If it wasn't so expensive I'd have you ship me some.
Double check with your local LKQ Auto parts. I know there is one in El Paso. They may be just as cheap.
too much
If it's a 99-04 I thought they only did a Dana 50 even in the F350 those years. it wasn't until 04+? that the Current D60 came back around. I'm not a Ford year break guru but I know that there is a series of years that the D60 didn't exist.
EDIT:
It's not too much if that's what you can find in your area. If that's a Ford 60 and is in running condition, with matching geared rear and a T-case that will work with your th350 and is drivers drop I think it's within reason, not a deal by any stretch for sure but if it's all matchy matchy and good I would look at it. I know you've been looking for a good while now as well.
99-04 had a Dana 60 in the F250's and F350's. The F250's also came with a Dana 50, but are honestly pretty rare. The 05+ are considered the Super 60. Larger inner C's and larger unit bearings. Also larger axle tubes blah blah blah.
See below.
All the dually trucks were 60s. It's a spacer that unbolts.
Both of my friends using super duty 60s have dually axles

Last year I went to a yard that had an abundance of newer Ford axles and no 8-lug chevys. They charged a flat $200 for any axle in stock. That's a bunch cheaper than the GM D60s typically go for, so I've been wondering since then how easily one of them could be utilized on one of our rigs.
We have an early 99' F350 with 7.3 that has a D50, Every early superduty I have seen or been around has been a D50, so even if they were only an option they wern't that rare and in this case he needs to make sure it's a D60. I still don't think the first releases of the 99' to what might be 02' based on the below information had D60s. I swear Ford dropped the D60 axle from at least the single wheel line until sometime 02' to 04'.

Don't forget anything in this year range and ford will be the new metric bolt pattern, 8X170mm? I think.
