    Axle differences over the years

    Interesting stuff. Been awhile since I looked at locking gear. The difference in cost between a ford locking axle and the same open diff axle is about the same as a trutrac. Guessing a trutrac with 100k easy miles would look fairly new? Wonder if anybody has killed one. Sent from my...

    I agree. If you're pulling tractors dont use the lockers. Save them for the rest of us who are working or wheeling. Pretty sure my 86 f350 diesel with little turbocharger wont break them. Haha. Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk

    Axle differences over the years

    Hey all. Will axles from later/earlier years bolt up no problem? Noticed since the conversion to coils, the interchange years for axles are narrow. Like 2006 to 2007 and 2011 to 2013. Is there anything to look out for? Major dimensional changes and compatibility issues, or just minor things...
