8.8 differential compatibility
My understanding is that later model (1987 and newer) F-150 8.8" differentials use a 7/8" cross pin rather than the 3/4" used in earlier versions. Are there any problems putting a later model differential in a 1983 F-150? Presumably the axles will stick out an additional 1/16" on each side, but the axle bearing races should accomodate that, I believe. Any comments? Thanks in advance.
