i have a original 77k30 . 34k miles on it . i could go pull a full time drive slug cap and check for the grove for you tho .

easy to spot early trucks .

pass side king pin cap on dana 60 is cast iron NOT tin . first year or so only .

front spring hangers for rear springs were 2wd short . this gets you a factory 3" block WITH bump stop ear in the rear to make up the difference .

mine was a th400/203 truck and had a 2 piece drive shaft with carrier bearing . front shaft was around a foot or so . . .

if i recall been years but i do think they didnt have the grove . would be easy for someone to chuck up in a lathe and cut it in tho .
