i bought a set of 8 lug axles for my k5 that came out of a 85 3/4 ton burb. i was told that they were a 14bolt rear and a dana 44 front. anyways i wanted to order a detroit e-z locker for the front but i want to know exactly what i hacve before i order it. the chevy dealership said that they have know way of looking it up. any ways the fill plug is on the cover, there is gm12 stamped on the driver side (but i belive it is 10 bolts on the cover) of the diff and 4030376 on the pasenger and also k294.
 
10 diff cover will be almost round
D44 will have a 44 stamped in the lower right corner of the housing (under diff cover)

If it's got knuckles, it's definitely a front........
