Any F-100 rear axle '61 - '67 will be a direct bolt on replacement in all respects, including the brakes.
And F-100 '68 - '72 will bolt up to the frame, springs and shocks with no problem, but the rear brakes and rear half-shafts will not be the same. You will not be able to interchange those parts with the earlier axles.
