I didn't see this covered...Some Dodge trucks (and maybe some others) came with 3.08's from the factory. Look for a Dana 61 axle. Similar to a Dana 60, but had an offset pinion to account for the large pinion gear of the 3.08 set. Make sure the gear set in it is good, though, because new ones are almost non-existant. Bearings and seals are all still available as they are the same for a 60.
