Have 1995 F250 4x4 with 460 V8. Just added 2 new leaf springs to front. Saw a few cracks in Front axle cross member. Axle started leaking a little but then went on rough road and front axle leaked out all oil! Re-filled it and leaked out immediately and seals seam fine. I think axle case cracked!
Have 130,000 miles so I think its best to replace front axle with used one.
Tag says my front axle is 4.10 ratio and rear is limited slip axle according to orginal invoice on my truck. Located used 1992 F250 4x4 same engin, asked about front ratio on axle but owner says nothing on front and rear says 4.11? Is it possible to have a 4.10 front ratio and a 4.11 rear ratio??? Did he read it wrong ( 60 miles away so I haven't looked)
If paper tag is off front axle how do you tell ratio? Used axle owner say ok to have 4.10 front and 4.11 rear????
