I don't know offhand, but I would imagine that someone, somewhere along the line, decided it would be a good idea to make a locker for the rear axle of heavy duty F-series trucks.

I'm not sure about your semif float, but My f-250 had a full flaot sterling and i put an auburn pro limited slip in it...you can get ARB's and detroits as well.

My 89 F-350 came from the factory with a locker. The ID tag has an "L" between the first and second digit of the gear ratio indicating locker.

I have a factory 3L55 10.25 semi floater. Going to swap it over to 5 lug soon for my centurion.

If you are in the Van. area try I.W.E rear ends only, or rear end specialties in Langley. My '92 diesel 10.25 came stock with the limited slip, so it should be avail. Hope this helps!

If the gearset and carrier are the same for the semi-floater and the full-floater, you have a few differential choices available. For true automatic lockers, there are the Detroit Locker and the Powertrax LockRight. The ARB Air Locker is listed as for the full-float only. For clutch-type limited slips there are the Ford Traction-Lok, Auburn, and Eaton Posi. I have the LockRight in my 10.25" full-float and I like it alot.
