From the dealer I believe the rear axle alone is $3,300. I looked into it before I did my swap.05yellowx said:any one know how much it will cost me to buy all the stuff i need from dealer ?
Yes, but the S gear ratio is different and that's why you need the front diff.05XOR said:All you need to be sure of is that the gear ratio of your front dif matches the ratio of the donor D44 rear axle.
The rear axle gear for an automatic trans 2005 OR is 3.36. I don't know what it is for the manual trans. but I'm pretty sure it's different.
No, I've got the switch in the glove box that works for some reason. At some point I'll need some expertise on how to wire it correctly.kokopop said:Did you every resolve the whole relay thing?

Trust me, I have the OR rear axle and front diff on my S. I've been through this and completed it without many problems.

I know on the S it's: 2.937.

Yea the label on the axle seems to be wrong, we've run into this before. I believe Alpine was able to confirm that it's incorrect. I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure that was the result.05XOR said:I inspected the sticker on the rear axle of my 2005 OR with automatic transmission. It's clearly printed 3.36.
I wanted to make sure so I ran the VIN and sure enough, it's 3.36.
Courtesy has my axle listed at 3.133. I believe that might be an error.
Run the VIN when in doubt.
Yup, you're right, I'm sorry I was wrong. I had them backwards. I couldn't remember which one was wrong whether it was the documentation or the stamp on the axle.05XOR said:That's why Dave from All Phase wanted to run my VIN. We needed to calculate the RPM's for the gearing I'll run in the Ford 9". We wanted to know what came stock in the OR's with auto trans. I gave him the VIN number off my truck and it came back 3.36
The sticker and the VIN data matched at 3.36. I don't know what else to say.
