Are the ford rear ends junk? I accidently left 150ft posi burn out and a duramax owner stated that ford rear ends are junk and he was surprised that it didnt grenade on me.Is there any truth to his statement?It was a one time accident i do not beat on my truck.

 

150ft is no accident. I have never had a problem with the rears on any of my fords. I had about 6.

The Ford's 10.5 inch Sterling is one of the strongest in the industry.

IMO I feel strongly enough about that statement that I say this- I dare you to break it. Mine has 20,000 miles of 500+ rwhp and far too many burnouts to count, and doesn't make a noise. I changed the fluid at 17,000 miles and there was no visible metal anywhere.

 

lol sounds like a bitter duramax owner trying to justify his purchase

 

Industrial Dude hit that nail squarely on the head! Just sour grapes from getting his doors blown off.

As also stated above, the Visteon/Sterling axles are very solid. I believe you would have a difficult time finding a post on this board where anybody had trouble with one.

 

Thanks people for your confirming my suspicions.I thought he might be a soothsayer owning a duramax and all.

 

nice to see you back matt. the rear end are isfine its the limited slip that i dont like im switching to an eaton or detroit locker for sum traction

 

Any of you rear end guys know if the 3.55's from the E-350 6.0's will fit in our F-250's. I'm concerned about the electonic pickup so the computer will keep working. Thanks..........

 

You gotta love these statements It was a one time accident.I do not beat on my truck . lol
