[QUOTE="Betarocker, post: 1491514, member: 477"] In 2005 Ford changed the rear shock mounting from both aft of the axle to left aft and the right forward in order to control axle wrap better. My 2004 4wd had both on the back side of the axle. Traction bars do a better job at controlling wrap, so determine which will be the easier task; moving the shock mount to the rear of the axle or adding one on the chassis. The leaf spring 4wd had the anti-sway bar chassis mount rearward of the front axle, and again the 2005 model year is when things changed. Due to the radius arm design and available space, the anti-sway bar was located tot he front of the axle, so the holes might not be present to do the swap without drilling some new holes. It's not a big deal, other than make sure you use quality bits because the chassis steel is hard. If you know someone with a 2005+ 4wd, take a look to see how it goes together. I can't help with the differences in the tracbar bracket between the different model years. You'll need to see where holes line up and add as required. Might want to check to see if the tracbar from the 05 fits on (between) the previous year bracket. The 2000-04 tracbar bracket should bolt onto the 2wd chassis. Another thing to check is the sector shaft diameter of the older steering box will work with the 05 pitman arm. Again there were changes in the last almost 2 decades of Super Duties. [/QUOTE]
