Anyone know the track width of a D70 in a 1972 2wd F350?

Thanx, looks like 63.5
Did they offer a DRW, is the DRW the same axle as the SRW?

Very interesting they list an F350 srw flareside. Anyone ever seen one of those? I did have a junk F250 with a srw dana 70 once but it is the only one I have seen outside of the F350 crewcab. Most F350 srw trucks I have looked at had a 60.
I'm saving a chevy srw 70 for my truck.

willowbilly, here's a pic of F-350 SRW flareside, it has a 135" wb and a 9ft bed on it.



I have no clue where this truck came from, I found the pic in Keith's "forum reference photo gallery".

Ford did not use the 60 under the rear of F-350's unless you count the 79 F-350 4x4 (glorified F-250). They used the D61, D70 and sterling axles. The bump D70's are borderline paperweights with 23 spline axles. The 73-79 F-350 super camper D70's are pretty nice with 35 spline shafts and bigger brakes.

Well, maybe I saw a 61 but I was sure a 1969 bumpside F350 srw crewcab I looked at had a 60.

BTW<, I want that carrot yellow truck, even if it has the wrong hubcaps.
