• Description:

  This is a genuine Ford front axle housing for four-wheel-drive F-150, Expedition, and Navigator models built from 07/22/21 with the 3.73 axle ratio and a gas engine, excluding the 4.10 ratio and Raptor applications. The housing is the cast structural case of the front drive axle that carries the differential gears, supports the axle shafts and bearings, and mounts the front differential to the frame, holding everything in precise alignment under drive and cornering loads. It provides the sealed cavity that retains gear lubricant and locates the pinion and carrier so the front axle transmits power to the wheels quietly and reliably. Buyers usually need this housing after a severe off-road impact, a collision, internal bearing failure that damages the case, or a cracked or leaking original that can no longer hold lubricant. Symptoms of a failing housing include persistent gear-oil leaks, whining or clunking from the front axle, and misalignment that accelerates wear on the ring and pinion. Because axle housings are ratio and application specific, this part is matched to the 3.73 gas, non-Raptor configuration and should be paired with the correct ring and pinion and carrier for that ratio. Ford builds this housing to original equipment tolerances so the differential internals, seals, and axle shafts locate correctly on reassembly. Transfer over the internal components and install fresh seals and the specified lubricant during the rebuild to restore quiet, durable front-axle operation.
