I am ordering the 5.0 with the regular cab and 8ft box, I have used LS for 30 years on everything I ever owned, never really let me down. Also makes it easier to spin a donut when turning on snow!. I worry about the drop out at higher speeds, and the extra cost when it breaks. Not that we have solved the axel option, I would like to know why I can't order a sliding rear window unless I have a fleet order. LIke to know who's idea that was at Ford?

Looks like rockauto.com has been lying to me again. I take back the statement about the bigger rear diff. I was wrong. The HD package has a 7 lug 9.75" diff (among other odds and ends to give it the extra payload ability).

I like it. I will be modding as time passes to have it engaged when I want it to be..... and not the kick out when Ford thinks it should method. My year round daily driver of another manufacturer that sits stock low to the gound height with all terrain tires has a Detroit Locker in it..... hands down best daily driving mod I have ever done. I drive in snow winter crap for a few more months of a year than most beyond Alaskans maybe and it works very well. If one tire has traction of some form it stays straight. Now with an open diff..... one wheel peg legging will still throw the trucks track off on ice.... it's ice, it has a fricitional coefficient of zero. I'm a 30000-40000 mile a year guy in that truck so I have plenty of situations to find the usefulness or lack thereof of a locked diff..... usefulness wins.


I would get it... and did lol.
