I have a 2008 4x4 Explorer ST. I am planning to use 4.10 gears and an IRS ECTED LS locker for the rear 8.8. Has anyone done anything similar and if so what parts did you use?

I have everything I need for the rear, but can't find an aftermarket gear set for the 2008 front Dana IFS differential. What Dana part should I be looking for? The cover on it says 6L24-4033D. Most Explorers have a Dana 35 in the front right? Is the front IFS ring gear the same or different than previous Explorer models? Thanks for any help.

The parts from FORD for the 2008 front IFS are:

PART NUMBER DESC
8L2Z-14A318-CB HARNES
F57Z-3222-DA GEAR SET
D9BZ-4630-A PIN BRG
5L2Z-4L616-AB PINION SEAL
FOTZ-3A222-A COLL SPR
F57Z-3254-AA AXL SEAL
5L8Z-4B161AA AXL SEAL
