Cant really tell from the pic but I would say the inner shaft is NON-neck down.

necked down shafts are big on both ends & skinny in the middle
Ohhh...got it got it...I thought necked down meant it tappered at the inside just towards the end...

Holy oversized pic batman! That's just annoying.
Here's a comparison pic for you.
Top one from my '84, bottom one from my '78.

In the last pic, the top is the non-neck down, while the bottom is a neck-down. They were changed around the mid 80's on most D60's.

I knew that pic would come in handy. I just took that when I was stealing the axle shafts from my tow rig and putting them into my wheeler. Figured the stepside would need them more.
Necked down on the bottom...that is not what I have. Thanks for the clarification!
ya its neked down or not.
