No Ford guru insight on this? Im sure there is a blue oval specialist here that knows this piece of trivia.
Side note,
I ended up ordering my axle from a California. Inspected, delivered and 6 month warranty for (no core needed) $408. I couldn't believe what everyone else in my area wanted for one. In my area the Southeast the best i could find was $450, that is me picking up the axle myself, 30 day warranty and they wanted my old one or it was an additional $50. i looked in all of GA , SC and North Florida. The self service pull-a-parts are cheaper of course ($250) but these places are heavily trafficked and a vehicle is usually picked clean of any valuable parts within 48 hours of hitting the yard. Im pretty sure these folks are selling them second hand, I already have a full time job thus i have no chance to beat them to the punch.
