I just blew the rear out of my truck so Im looking to go stronger, a guy has one on Craigslist out of a 2002 f350 with the gears that I want.

does the 2002 f350 have a VSS on the rear diff like i need?

 

I'm sure it does....
But the 350 is 8 lug and your 150 is only 5.
Then, the superduty is a metric bolt pattern so older OBS wheels won't fit.

 

an 8 lug swap doesnt bother me. as long as the VSS works

 

Complete waste of time. Just rebuild the 8.8 w the gears you want. You have a 302, it will break nothing

 

U can always upgrade go for it and if want to build that 302 to embarass diesels shouldnt take much lol

 

That will never happen

 

no the 02 axle will not bolt in. different spring perch width, different bolt pattern, different brake system, different parking brake system.

while not pratical or cost efficent i wouldnt say that. I know of a few 302 based engines that would hurt our diesels feelings( wel except for fuel mileage)

 

Maybe in a 3000lb mustang
not a 5k+ pickup

 

i know what hp/tq these paticular engines make and id say 800+ hp 750ish tq would do it now i didnt say they were stock

 

I completely agree. Unless you're talking a non turbo 6.9 or a gm 6.2.
And it's gonna take quite a 302 in a truck (probly even a ranger) to get by my crewcab superduty.

That's like me telling anyone with a dodge 1ton... I'll hook my ford gasjob back to back to your 900-1200tq cummins.... And Then I show up with my 15000lb F800 4x4 Marmon Herrington "pickup". Hey, it's a ford!

 

lol as i said before while not pratical it can be done i spend a fair amount of time around alot of fast cars at the dragstrip and i know what kind of power it takes to do it. And yes it would be at much higher rpm to make the same power

 

Took left turn into "Apples and oranges" territory tad bit didn't ya guys!

 

yeah we kinda did lol to the op if i was wanting to upgrade it would be a sterling 10.25 from a 97 or older since its pretty much a bolt in but will still be 8 lug vs ur 5 lug

 

Yea even if the owner paid him to take that axle its just not going to work, anything can be made to work yes but when it doesn't make any sense its not worth it regardless of the money end of it.

It'd completely *******ize the thing to do it, completely trash any resale value and just doesn't need something like that in a axle under it. Just not putting that much power to it and never will with that power plant.

If wants/needs F250/350 axles? starting out with the wrong truck....
