8.8-Inch Rear Axle Assembly with Posi Limited Slip

The Zumbrota Drivetrain RAA435-2026F-P is a remanufactured axle assembly meticulously rebuilt to exacting standards for enhanced precision and reliability. Designed specifically for the 2000 Ford F-150, this unit features the robust 8.8-inch Ford-built ring gear with a 3.55 gear ratio. It comes equipped with a Posi Limited Slip Differential for improved traction and is configured for rear disc brakes. Each Zumbrota Drivetrain axle assembly undergoes a comprehensive remanufacturing process. This includes thorough inspections of the housing for straightness, cracks, and surface wear. All internal components, such as ring and pinions, clutch packs, and carriers, are meticulously inspected and tested. Crucially, all bearings and seals are replaced with new ones. The gears are carefully examined to ensure optimal tooth contact patterns and correct rolling torque, with precise backlash settings established for quiet operation, proper gear lubrication, and extended longevity. Zumbrota Drivetrain employs an exclusive cleaning procedure that includes hydro-blasting and sandblasting for both internal and external parts. This is followed by a proprietary shot-enticed deep cleaning process, setting a high standard for remanufactured axle assemblies. The assembly includes the axle cover and is built with a semi-floating axle type. While the cover is included, fluid is not. Buyers should note the recommendation to "Check Tag" for specific compatibility, indicating potential variations that may require verification against the vehicle's original equipment tag (Hollander No. 435-226-P).
