SRW to DRW Conversion
2003 F 350 4x4 SRW V10
I was reading through the posts and had some additional questions.
1. Axle code ID
3v421f
4L301052L04
I believe this to be a 4.30 Limited Slip 10.5"Ring. Is that correct?
2. When I was searching with a parts locator it did show an option for a 4.30 in the 10.5 ring. It was only available with a 11.25 ring. Does the ring size matter?
3. Also I want to make sure that it is not from a cab chassis. The 11.25 comes with ID #'s of :
2C34-ZA-ZB
3C34-HB
2C34-ACA
2C34-ACB
Do these numbers tell me if it has come off a cab chassis or not. If not besides actaully measuring are there any ID's that will tell me that info.
Also any tips on the conversion will be greatly appreciated. I need this to be a functional Dually for work purposes.
Thanks,
Steve

What is the axle code from your door frame sticker?
DRW trucks do not use the Sterling 10.5" differential, so that is why you see a listing for the 11.25" ring gear.
Yes, the 10.5" Sterling does come in a 4.30 ratio.

The axle code is D3.
If I do go with the 11.25 ring gear is there any way in the axle id tag to know if it will match (spring perches etc.) with the truck. I want to make the down time as short as possible. There more 4.30 w/ the 11.25 ring gear so I assume that the cab chassis used the 11.25 and don't want to buy the wrong one.
Also thanks for the quick responses this is extremely helpful!
