Identify this axle

[ClarkFarms]

Hello. I am building a mud truck, and I got a very good deal on a set of axles out of a Dodge military truck. Thats all I know lol. I have been searching for info and parts for the front axle, and cant find anything. I was refered over here, by a gentleman on ebay. Heres a picture of my front axle. It is a banjo style axle. Im trying to find out exactly what it is.

I did find a tag on the axle tube, only numbers/letters I can make out are I think the model number. It is as follows: FDS 750 CHX40.

Any help would be greatly appriciated!!

Thanks Chris

It is a Timken. Most were 6.17 Ratio. Parts will be the same as a WWII CCKW.

Thank you! The main parts im trying to find now are the rubber boots at the knuckles and kingpin kits. Would you recomend any vendors?

i have those axles from studes and gmc trucks and all the parts dont interchange.splines are not all the same and brake drums and hubs are different .make sure parts are available before you put it in your mud truck.they are stout but dont like a lot of hp.
