Changing rear differential

Current F250 4WD 460 w/ 4.11 gears.
Is is possible to change to a 3.55? Would
this require any changes to front axle and/or
differential?

Yes you can change to 3.55. If you want to use 4wd you will have to change the front gears to match.

I'll take the 4.11's off your hands if you are gonna get rid of 'em...I need an extra set bad...I don't care how worn they are.
