ring and pinion

[azrich487]

I have a 01 f350 with a 10.5 rear end. I broke 3 teeth on my 4.56 ring gear. I cant find a 10.5 ring and pinion replacement I went down to ford and they said the one I have has been discontinued. Any suggestions?

4 wheel parts they will be cheaper anyways.

I've never rebuilt a rear end before, I am mechanicaly inclined and have rebuilt a couple of Cats, Cummins, and Mack E6's. So I'm confident I can do it with time. I will need some instructions. Do instructions come with a master rebuild kit usually? Or does anyone know where I can download some.

You can put 10.25 ring gear in there if that is something you want to do.

FYI... I have a 4.56 rear gear set I would let go... It is used, but only has about 5000 miles on it. Pulled it to go to 4.30's... Was going to list it next week...

Thanks for the offer, but I just picked up a set of motive gear for a 10.25 for a smokin deal! Does anyone know if I will have to change my yoke the pinion looks shorter and if so which one do I use?

I just got the carrier apart and the spider gears are all marked up the pinion that they ride on is pretty chewed up also. any one know if this pinion is sold seperatly. I bought the new gear set for the carrier but there is no shaft
