Some good info there. And if anyone in NE area is looking for a few of these I know guy that has 3-4 in his yard.

Jason.
Thanks for the link I had searched, but couldn't find anything. FWIW I am guessing the one I have here is a pickup truck version. It has a more familiar type axle shaft design than those shown in that link.

NE meaning northeast or Nebraska? I could use some parts for this one. The axle nuts were thrashed, I had to turn them out by hammer/chisel. I might be able to fix the diff cover but a good straight one would be nice or one from a duece

Here is what I know about the H110... Its not the biggest axle in the GM "H" series, there is an H135 and an H150 that I remember. The H110 is in the grey area of axles the ring gear is bigger than the rockwell 106, the axle shafts are basicly the same size, Yet it was available in a one ton pickup! A Dana 80 37 spline inspired axle should fit the spindle if the side gears could be reworked.

Production was from 46-81 (that I can verify) the rockwell (106?) takes its place in 82 on the step vans

10 and 6 lug hubs were available

Some had splined flange end axles, others were typical bolt on

earlier models had bolt on sheet metal rear covers, except for the M135/M211duece which had a beefy cast iron ribbed front cover (the only way to make it cooler would have been to cast THIS SIDE TOWARD ENEMY into it.) later axles appear to have welded on covers as the GM parts manual shows no service part for the rear cover in 81

Two gear ratios, 6.17 and 5.43 (not so common) Gears might interchange from an eaton axle which would make for a nice gear spread

Used in one ton pickups with DRW and optional 11,000 GVW up till 1968

Used in the GMC M135, M211 Duece and a half (front and rear). I am real curious about the shaft joint design used on the steer axles in those dueces. There are closed knuckle.

Used in step van (king?) 11,000 GVW up till 1982 (these had bendix disk brakes very similar to a dana 60 front)

It appears they were used in 40-60 series trucks as well
