I did a search on this, and could not find the information. Does anyone know what brand/type/size front axle is on the 2004-present 4x4 F-150's?

Are these front axles limited slip or open differentials?

thanks in advance.

 

They are 8.8" Ford open diffs.I beleive they are also reverse rotation.

 

I think they are made by Visteon in Sterling MI.

 

what would it take to make the front open diff a limited slip?

 

They are all open?

 

I crawled under mine and it said ACME Co. WTF??

 

You must have gotten one of the ones installed by Wyle E. Coyote.......

 

haha

 

It's got his signature on it!

 

Bump.

 

i know this isn't a "what tires or shocks should i buy" thread (which ends up getting 40 replies), but this is a legitimate question...and no one has an answer?

 

I have found some lockers for your front axle. the first one is air operated and the other two are electric.

I have never used any of these be cause of the prices but they do have there benifets to select open diff or locked.
