Like the title said, I'm going to pick up my axle friday, I've been planning on this for about a year so I want to make sure I have my facts strait before I get to the salvage yard.
I'm getting a Ford 8.8
They have 2, both out of 2000 ford explorers. Is that year ok?
I want 4.10 gears. It should have a tag that reads: 410L Right? L or limited slip?
It does NOT matter if it's a V6 or V8 explorer. The axles are the same.
I should ask for "the entire axle, all the way out to the rotors" correct?
I shouldn't have to check for spline count, High/low pinion, or anything like that correct?
This is the way they read on their website:
3-00,4.0,AT..,4.10,LOCKER,S615
4/00,4.0,A.T.,4WD,4.10L RATIO
What does the 3-00 and 4/00 stand for? Should I care?
And finally, am I forgetting anything? This is my first axle purchase so I'm a little edgy.
