D150 = 2WD Dodge 1/2 ton.
W150 = 4WD Dodge 1/2 ton.
Dodge never used six lug axles in any of their half-ton trucks in the late 70s AFAIK.
I'd be willing to bet he's talking about an FSJ or Chevy.

Should be no worse than any other D44. If it had an NP203, it will have drive flanges instead of hub locks. Easy enough to change that though.
Pattern will be 5 on 5.5 same as a ford.

Again, if it is in fact a Dodge axle, it will have 5 x 4.5 bolt pattern and shitty unit bearings.
One of the worst D44s out there.

Incorrect.
Dodge front D60s up through '93 are great axles. Dodge Rear D80s are great axles.
Generally, I'd stay away from any Dodge 1/2 ton front axle. They either had the terrible unit bearing design, or a CAD system like the early XJs.
