I gotta ask, how did you manage that? Are you sure it's not just a broken transfer case.

Front differential cases are interchangeable if the F-250 has the Dana 44 IFS. Axle housings are different though since the F-250 uses leaf springs versus the coil springs and radius arms on the F-150. The rear axle should fit, but you will be limited to 8 bolt wheels with the F-250 axles.

put F-150 stuff back in it and don't do anything stupid next time...rowdy is on the money...f-250 and up is leafsprung front.remember also there's a difference in the f-250 rears.......the ones with the big ugly hub stickin out are the ones to get.

So, what exactly did you prove by having a pull off? What were you pulling backwards, an Abrams Tank?! You'll have less head ache by sticking with the stock set up.

Ok

I know I'm a newbie. I'm not trying to be a dick; really. But if youre in the the ford truck enthuiast forum and you had a problem, how could it NOT be a "Ford Problem". I mean if we had a "Wife Problem thread" I could understand it but...well...you get it....anyway, yes I've had a couple of drinks, 'just caught me as funny..

Right on with the pulloff tho....

You know, as much of a waste as doing things like this is, sometimes you just have to... Like yesterday a guy down the street just made his own speed bump by laying sacks of asphalt across the road. So I called my friend over and we fired up the 86 diesel beater, and ran it over the speed bumps at close to 50 miles per hour. Nothing broke, but even if it did it would still be one of those priceless experiences...
