First Question
English Axle (Timken Banjo) ? or Salsbury type ?

In the english axle the diffeential is fitted in a removable carrier.

The salsbury pattern axle only has a removable inspection plate on the rear of the axle.


See Ebat item 330234808042 for an english axle shaft -- no way to know which side.

Take a look at it, Diff locating Nuts round the propshaft side = english axle (if your shure its a ford)
Bolts round cover plate at rear of axle= atlas
