i was curoius if these truck have a limited slip thing or what? If they docan they wear out and how do you fix them to lock back up?

 

Yes some come with limited slip rear ends. Check your door jam sticker for the axle code. If its just numbers then you have an open rear of it have a "C" and a number you have a limited slip rear and they can be rebuilt with new clutch packs. About $100-150 in parts.

 

how big of a deal is it to redo the clutch pak and if im doing that is it worth it to go with 4.10 gears and a 08 diff cover...i have 3.55s now and i dont really like them.

 

With some L/S carriers, jumping to a lower gear ratio may require a new carrier. If this is the case for you, I would just get a better L/S that does not use clutch packs. Ford units always wear out quickly.
Or, put in a Detroit locker and forget about it. I know that this is a costly option, but this is just a suggestion.

 

i just put a powertrax lockrite locker in my truck today i still gotta swap the axle i put it in to the truck hopefully this weekend i'll give yall some pics when i'm done the only kinda hard part about the whole thing was getting the little springs into the windows

 

The easiest way to tell if you have posi is to jack up the rear end to where the tires are off the ground and then turn one wheel. If they both turn thr same direction then you have posi if one turns one way and the other turns the oposite then you do not have posi.

 

i'ma suggest torsen t2

 

Scan the local junk yards for a 3 pinion SD posi. I just put one in mine and I gotta say it's massive. Took 2 people to lift it into the housing. Coonhunterjoe has a few picts of his swap. He was the one I got the idea from. Picked it up for $100 and it literally bolts right in to your existing housing using the same carrier shims. And what a difference I had an open carrier and my truck would get stuck in wet grass...no joke! It's a good thing it's 4x4.

 

man, how much do you bench?......lol two man lift?

but yes, get the sd rear carrier, its a nice swap and cheap from the junkyards. pretty nice piece

 

this is what i put in my truck pretty easy to do and so far i'm liking it
don't know how to make it blue so yall can click on it all i know how to do is copy and paste sorry i'm from arkansas
