Nope, she is a 3/4 ton Powerstroke, factory rear height and modified to put down about twice the factory HP and TQ, see pic below for list of mods;
That’s why I’m worried about getting a junkyard rear, I’m worried that it might break just like this one did. I was hoping to find out about some sort of bigger/better kit I could put in it. I found out I can get a set of Yukon gears for $255 and a master installation kit for $290 so that’s about $550 just for parts and I still will not have limited slip or posi, that will apparently add about another $600 to the cost. I really don’t got the extra cash right now to do this “right”. I checked with car-parts.com earlier today and it looks like a used complete rear would be around $750.
I will be doing whatever repair myself because I can’t make myself let anyone else with a wrench near my baby, partially I don’t trust dealerships and partly I want to know what’s going on first hand. I admit I know little about diffs but I do know they have to be setup right and gear mesh checked, surely if I can rebuild the engine I can figure out the rear-end with a little help from folks like yall on the net and my service manual.
