Hi all, need some quick help. Can anyone tell me what type of front differential is in my 2000 V10 Excursion, (dayna 50 or 60 I have heard) and what the value is for a used front differential including the axles. Thanks in advance!
Dana 50. Values vary for various reasons, I bought a set of front/rear EX housings setup with 4.88 gears and a rear locker earlier this year for $1200.
I'm in the process of parting out a tree fell on me 2000 X and someone offered $400 for the front differential, with the shafts, and $100 for the rear. I know the rear is too low imho but the front I'm not sure on, that's why I figured I'd ask here.
If your rear axle has factory limited slip, that would bring more $$. I would also hazard a guess to say if you have 4.10 or 4.30 gear ratios, that would also bring a premium price too.

Factory limited slip, how would I know?
3.73 Gears that I know.

The 3.7's are pretty standard and give the best mileage on the average truck but there are a lot out there, and the higher the #, the lower the gearing so a 4.10 would be better for towing etc. A 3.73 ratio gear-set will spin the pinion gear 3.73 times for every 1 spin of the ring gear etc. The lower (higher numerically) the ratio is the more RPM the engine will spin at a given MPH.

And Ford just arbitrarily put these rears in different trucks with no rhyme or reason? I mean my 02 has 3.73's. 2 of the three 00 have 3.73's and the third 00 has 4.3's. No rhyme, no reason, just that they felt like doing that? Sorry if I sound stupid, just trying to grasp the concept.

Normally anything other than 3.7's are special ordered when the truck was new. (optional).
