Dana 44 with flat top knuckles. No better than what you would currently have.

Yeah thats a D44. Its very close to a bolt in. The spring perches are a bit wider than ours. So the springs have to be pushed out a bit.

If you want a dodge D60, you need to look for a 1 ton. A W250 is a 3/4 ton.

If you want a dodge D60, you need to look for a 1 ton. A W250 is a 3/4 ton.

Up to 80(ish) a W200 is 3/4 ton, W300 is 1 ton. Past that, Stuka is right, for a 60 you need a 1 ton, as the D60 was available in the W200, but only came in about 5% of them.
