Rear axle will be a Dana 44, IH code 14018 for open diff, 14028 with
TracLok.

Front axle was specified to be a Dana 44, IH code 02044.  However, a
considerable quantity had a Dana 30 substituted because of a shortage of
44's.  This change was not reflected on the lineset which will say 02044.
You can tell the difference by looking at the passenger side U-bolts.  On
the 30, they are of equal length.  On the 44, the inner one is longer as
it goes around part of the diff housing.
