Could be a Dana 44 rear. That is assuming your referring to a Dana 44 front for a 4 wheel drive.

As far as i know, the 44 was available in early GMC trucks, but not in Chevies. So someone proably put a GMC rear in your truck

it could be a dana 44 swapped in, or also a later 10 bolt rearend. if it has little "horns" on the bottom of the diff, then its the 10 bolt.

Looks like a Dan 60 to me, (out of a 3/4 ton). Check out the axle guide.
