before i get :nuke: i did go to the dana website for building material numbers and didnt have any luck. they dont list International as a manufacturer. the axle i have are a pair of Dana 44's (1 front, 1 rear, obviously) the front axle tube is stamped:

610035 2
6 18 B8

the rear is stamped:

603882 4 (the second 8 could be a 3, the stamping was real light after the sandblasting)
6 63 A3

i have no idea exactly what they are out of but i believe they are a scout as the knuckles have the horns with two holes in them for tie rod and drag link. can anyone decipher these BOM numbers and give me a year and vehicle so i can get parts from a local parts house that doesnt have any idea what a BOM number is.

thanks
