I put an Elocker in the front axle of my 06 Super Duty. It worked great though I didnt get the opportunity to use it very much. I regeared so it seemed like a sin to just put an open carrier back in the front axle.
An elocker in the front of a Super Duty is a great option. There is a lot of weight over the front axle - especially with a diesel. I didn't find it hard to turn - even in full circles - if the ground was a bit soft or a little muddy. Frankly I found myself using it most when up in the Sierras with the lance camper loaded on the back. When I approached a rough or rocky section of trail, or a water crossing, I would engage it. Once I got through that spot I would disengage it.
I plan to also put one in the front axle of my 2016 Super Duty.

Give this company a call, NO ONE knows more about Ford D 60's than they do. I ran their ProRock 60's w/ARB's and 4:88 gears.
If you are looking for bulletproof they make it, ball joints, axles all kinds of stuff.
They are goof folks and know their stuff, give them call, they well help.

For goodness sake man, if you're going to tempt us, at least don't leave us hanging!

They do a lot of speciality work for Ford, when Ford gets a request for something not in their offering, usually DoD or oil companies doing exploration work. They use Ford D 60's for all there aftermarket axle builds.

Doesn't look like aftermarket will have 4.10's available any time soon, so I'm going to go ahead and have the Eaton Truetrac #915A387 installed in the front of my '18 F350 and wait on the gear change. I contacted Eaton one more time and suggested that they take a second look at the new Super Duties but they unfortunately gave me the same response:
