This may not help much, But I'm currently rebuilding my dads ford 8.8 in his F-150. an axle went bad and all the metal from that flowed through everything else resulting in badly pitted gears and bearings... the carrier bearings were shot too. So he needs everything except the case itself, I just bought all the parts, nothing high performance other than the LSD carrier and 31 spline shafts and it's costing about $1100. and that's with no labor costs.
