Question Gear Advice!!!

hey guys well i have a 2003 4x4 F150 with 35" At tires on stock rims with just a leveling kit so im wanting to upgrade from my 3.55 gears to 4.10 gears. And i know i have to do the front and back but was wondering if i could just find a f150 in a junkyard that came stock with 4.10's and use them? Would this be possible??

Good luck finding a 4.10's in the junk yard. I'm looking at getting a new set soon. Not going to be cheap.

I am not sure if these trucks came stock with the 4.10s, and if they did they are pretty rare. I know a lot of the gen 10s came with stock 3.73s you would probably have more luck finding those.

If your going to keep 35's on your truck I would just pay for new 4.10 gears. My buddy has them in his truck with 35's and he loves them.

I could be wrong but I really don't think they did.

if they were 4wd then wouldnt the front gears be 4.10s as well? or were only 2wd 7700s equipped with the 4.10s?
