FWIW, since about 2000 all of the 8.8 diffs that Ford has installed, can be used for both applications. So, unless you're getting something older than that, you'll be fine.
I'd have ZERO problem installing the axles with no clips.. Driller does it, Geno does it... and they both drive their cars like hell...
You don't even own an Explorer Jeff... you have a Mazda
I found a SC. I'm going tomorrow to extract the trac lok. Just need to get gears now. What vehicles can I look for to get gears from?
