97 - And i mean, that's the only option, right?
And yes, the 97 should take that exact truetrac.. 28 spline 8.8. I would still check it out first in case someone before you switched the rear end, there's a tag attached to a cover bolt that should tell the story.
It isn't a cake walk putting a ring back in,there is shimming involved for proper fit with the pinion gear. I have done it and gotten lucky (never with a ford and a truetrac but it is relative, similar design) but I wouldn't hesitate to do it since I have dial indicators and you tube. I do machining for a living I could grind shims if I needed.
