2002 F-150 Gear Swap question
Hey guys need some help/info on a gear change question. I have a 2002 F-150 2 wheel drive single cab with a 3:08 open differential. I have a deal where a guy wants something out of his shop. It is a 2002 Mustang GT complete 8.8 rear with a Limited slip diff and 3.27 gears. I know that year Mustang has 28 spline axles, so my question is:
Does my 2WD truck have 28 spine axles?
I figure if so this should be a straight forward diff/gear swap. Dude just wants $100 for the rear (a VERY good friend lol). My thought was to rebuild diff with Carbon Fiber Disc kit and slap 3.27 gear in (which would help a bunch towing my boat). Also are our speedos gear driven or is it more involved to ensure speedo is calibrated correctly for the gear change.
Thanks in advance for info/advice/links

You don't necessarily need a programmer for the speedo. In my Viper I went from the stock 3.07 to 3.55 and used a "Yellow Box" http://www.yellr.com/
You can find them used on ebay pretty cheap.
I bought one for the V10 swapped F150 too, but have been too busy to install it.
