Later model 40 with full floating rear axles should be the same. Earlier model 40's have park brake on the driveshaft so brake drums are different, and semi-floating rear axles, which may have a different spline count.

The 60 series has a wider rear, so the long side axle is longer, but short side should be the same, and diffs are the same, but check the ratio - both 40's & 60's came with 3.7 and 4.1 ratio diffs
