I looked at a truck this week and thought it was a Dana60 at first glance. Then Ilooked and it wasn't. I found a pic of a truck that has the same hub that I saw. Can you tell me what this axle is. What is it worth?

This is called a big hub Dana 44 axle.... came on 69-72 trucks with the blue lockout, and a yellow lockout from 73-77 or 78. The blue lockout hubs are worth a little bit to the right buyers... Axle isn't really worth anymore than any normal dana 44.
