Default Help required please!!

Hiya Guys!! 😉
I have a 2003 F150 Harley Davidson and I need to find out 2 things!
I'm from over the pond! Things are quite hard to get for my truck 😞 so any help would be great!!

1st thing! I need to know what axle I have on my truck as I need to overhaul it! And I havent a clue what rock auto's are going on about 😳 is it a 8.8 or so?

2nd I need some paint done on the tail gate and right hand front fender. The decal's needs replacing on both. Are they still available? If so could I please have the part numbers??

Thank you in advance!!
Gavin

There should be a tag under one of the bolt heads on the rear differential cover that gives the axle code.

I personally don't like decals but since it's a Harley Davidson and you're across the pond and all, I can see where you might want them.

Thank you very much for your help!! I will be having a look for that tag!! 😉

I would just like to keep it as ford intended with the decals. Some of my friends said remove the lot but as its a 100 anniversary truck I think I should keep them 😉

Your VIN number has the paint code in it. You can probably look on youtube to see how to read the VIN. Maybe someone here will chime in that knows which nos. are the paint code.
Sorry I couldn't give exact info.

Both above posters offered you excellent advice, google ford vin decoder and typ in your vin. Here is one.

Should list all options and features including rear axle.
