Spring perch

Does anybody know if an axle from a 2008 E350 Dually with bolt in place of the rear axle on my 2019 E350 dually van. The shop spun a rear bearing and damaged the spindle.. I do not have either axle to measure the spring perch width.

I do not know
But
I doubt it
Check with a junkyard and check their interchange info
Call or visit a Ford parts department
11 years later, there's bound to be something different
Even something like the ABS sensor can screw you
Just get the absolute correct axle at all costs is my 2 cents

I go to a junkyard around here twice a week some weeks, and sometimes months in between but it's close
I can ask them
You need the axle code off your door jamb to know what axle is in it
Then you can run an interchange search
Maybe post that axle code

I would think it would be fairly cheap and easier just to buy a new rear axle and or bearing kit. So I guess the question is, Is it the Rear Diff housing that's buggered up and needs replacing or can it be as simple as replacing the the bearings and races with new axle(s)??

Supposedly, the shop owner has a lead on a replacement axle. And new bearings as well.

Well you never know the quality of parts you buy any more, but Going over to partsgeek.com Your axle was as cheap as $156.00. But Rockauto.com also has good prices on bearing and axle shafts too.
