#15 of 18 '72 F-350 long wheelbase by cayoterun Jan 21, 2008 (7:44 pm)
Hi, new here and first post:   I'm needing to put the highest differential gear ratio in this truck. Does anyone know the highest ratio available for them. I'd like as close to 3. as I can. Putting a low max rpm, high torque motor in front of it. No heavy use on it tho, just hiway use, with light loads. Thanks, Cayoterun

Replying to: gregkay (Mar 28, 2007 12:21 pm) Have you received any reply's on your post. I just took delivery of a 5.4 V8 F-150 and found out it has a 3.31 axle ratio. I don't know if thats good for towing about 4400 lbs Do you know if a 3.55 would be better for all around towing and regular driving. Thanks.
#17 of 18 towing ability of F150 by campman1 Jul 28, 2008 (9:30 am)
Have 2003 F150, 4.6L, rear axle ratio of 3.08...How much can I tow, e.g. a small camping trailer....what about tongue weight? Should I consider changing the axle ratio? Thanks
#18 of 18 Rear Axle Rebuild by snowbrdjnky Apr 04, 2009 (7:53 pm)
Im not sure if this is the correct spot to put my question, but i will try it and hope for the best. I am trying and learning to rebuild my rear axil. This is the first place i thought of for help. Its off of a 1978 F 150. It has a 3rd member. I am having trouble removing the bearing on both (FORGIVE MY TERMINOLOGY) shafts going to each rear tire. there is a press on stop of some sort that i can not remove. Any any information would be greatly appriciated. On any aspect of the rebuild.
