Front Locking Hubs

I have a 2000 Excursion 4X4 and my factory hubs have gone to crap. I am going to put a set of Mile Markers on it but cant figure out what size front diff I have. Can someone please help. Thanks

you should have a DANA 50 with 30spline outer axles. i think that's the only axle the Ex ever got, i don't think they ever got the 60 put in them.

I have a pair of Mile Marker stainless hubs on my X and they do exactly what I want. Part # 449SS.

Ramble, the Hellwig was on there when I ought the X, and i put the RAS on. All I know is that for a BIG truck, it handles pretty darn well. And that includes when I am towing the travel trailer. So, I can't really tell you if it helps that much more. All I know is that the RAS did help when it was installed...
