That rear end is an 8-3/4. Dana 60 has the rear cover not the drop out.

I thought maybe it was a typo but thought it would be good info if you were unsure. I am also interested in how a Dana was painted as that is what is in my car.

No, Sorry to disappoint you but I did not make these Inspection marks up. Here's some Pics of the Actual Inspection marks as found on the rear at cleaning time.
