Out of curiosity what ford trucks can you get with a manual, i know my 95 was a 5 speed. But i haven't seen anything later than a gen 9 with a 5/6 speed...Can you even get a 6.4 with a manual trans?

Friend has a 44 stamped on his rear axle, but its upside down....
I thought the rear should be a dana 60 or a 9"Never heard of a 44 in the rear, is this some pieced together junk?
I already have a tach, but doesn't the lightening tach redline at like 6k?
I know the speedo is 100mph speedo.
Can y'all keep an eye out for me for one. I'm also wanting to do an led swap for the dash lights. ThanksAlso any links to good info would be appreciated.Thanks yall
