So at first glance, it looks like the tubes coming out of the differential housing are MUCH larger diameter on the 31 spline rear end in comparison to the axle tube, as a matter of fact it looks identical to an explorer rear end to me.

So for ultimate clarity ...

The rusty rear end and the door tag are off the same 2002 truck that has a 31 spline version of the R7.

The cleaner rear end is your truck, and is a 28 spline rear end off a vehicle who's door tag said R7 also.

Did I get it?
Haha let me clarify...

The rusty one belongs to the 2002 FX4 that I posted the door tag of.


The clean one is one i swapped into my truck from a 2007 Level 2. That truck is a 2003 Edge that came with an open 4.10 8.8 (a code 97 I believe)


I took photos of both hoping that the rust would outline what I was talking about as my truck was easier to access underneath.
