Default 85 ford axle code

so on the door tag of my old cab its designated as a dana limited slip #6300 capacity with 3.54's so A) which dana is that. B) its a 4x4 and the vin confirms it but according to the code there is no front axle. what does this mean? anything special or they just screwed up the tag?
