Here's some info that might help you narrow down what type of axle it is. According to my Haynes book the rear axle assemblies on 1/2-3/4 ton light duty models are semi floating 8-3/8, 8-3/4, and 9-1/4 axles. The 3/4-1 ton Heavy Duty models as Todd Wilson said you had used full floating Dana 60 or Dana 70 axles. The full floating axles can be identified by the large hub projecting from the center of the wheel. The axle flange is secured by bolts on the end of the hub. Another easier way to do it is to count the # of bolts. On the rear if it has 12 bolts then its Probably a Chrysler 9-1/4" axle. If it has 10 bolts then its probably a Dana 60 or 70. Since your a Jeep person you most likely Know alot about the Dana 44 bolt pattern. Well its the same pattern on the Dana 60 and 70. My SWAG (scientific wild assed guess) would be that its a Dana 60 or 70 rear and and a Dana 60 Front. Hey if the emblems are still there I would be more than happy to take them off your hands and I just might be interested in that Np 205 you got. How about give me an email and lets work something out. Thanks
