What gearing?

I have a 01 F350 crew cab V10 4x4 and was wondering what axle I have......The code on the door jamb says F3. I looked in the one section here and I can't find what F3 is. Could someone help me out?

I personally would be willing to bet you have a 4.3 limited slip axle.

be cause all the other letters have a letter then a 3 so F was prolly just left out

There is also a tag on the passanger side of your diff that will tell you. It will prolly say "4 L 30" some where on it
