It should have an off center 19 spline Dana 44 with two piece axles in the rear and Dana 27 (or 25?) closed knuckle front. It may have very low gearing which is cool if you want to take it off road. The transfer case should be a Dana 18. These sometimes have PTO units either hooked up to the back of or underneath the transfer case. Or it could have an O.D. on the back of the transfer case. Either is a bonus. If it has these it should have extra shift levers (more than 3) unless they have been removed. PTOs and O.D. are rareties but it is always worth looking for. I have a dash for it if you need one.
