? about 5.4L and rear axle
I have a 2001 f150 XLT SPORT w/ the 5.4L (2wd reg. cab & bed).
Now my question is is what size rear axle do i have?? I am fixing to do a gear swap and i think that it is a 9.75 but wanted to make sure. Any help would be appreciated.

HI!... ALL F-150's equipped with the 5.4 engine have the STERLING 9.75 rear end. It's a VERY strong rear end. Hey the LIGHTNING uses it and we all know what those guys put them through. All other F-150's equipped with the 4.2/4.6 engines come standard with the 8.8 rear end. All the "97" to current rear ends in the F-150's have 31 spline axles. At least FORD's is finally thinking for once.
