Identification Based on VIN, Door Jamb Label, Build Sheet (Ford 999 Report), Paint Color Code, VECI Label, Transmission/Differential Pan & Gasket Sizes/Shapes, etc.; "... made a mistake 15 years ago by telling someone to use the Driver's side label to ID their Rear Differential (axle, pumpkin type, etc.); turned out that a previous owner had swapped a Dana 60 in place of the stock 8.8..."

Dana 44 Removal in a 95 (part of Shane's Front Wheel & Spindle Installation; "...NOTE: On the drivers side of my 95, the axle came out with the spindle. If that occurs, just separate the axle and spindle and very carefully re-insert the axle. You may have to turn it a bit to get it to seat fully. Once the axle is back in, move to the next step..."; Miesk5 Note, pull the DRIVER SIDE axle shaft straight out. It shouldn't be too hard to pull out, but beware that it is a tight fit trying to get the U-joint out of the knuckle area of the axle housing. The axle shaft will pull all the way
out of the housing. Do not attempt to pull the passenger side axle shaft out in the same manner, as it is held into the third member with a C-clip; in the Dana 44 Parts Break-Out Diagram, Dana calls the C Clip a Snap Ring
