I was looking to swap axles. I have done re-gears before and it's just such a pain. Only reason I was thinking of a regear was because of the bad bearing.
Anyway I put in repair bearings and those now lasted 100 miles and coated my brakes in gear oil. Looks like my axles are shot because they're all pitted and the seals being pushed out further is causing them to leak. I just ordered factory stock bearings from Ford and will put them in. Hopefully they will be ok and I won't have to replace axles too. This truck is teetering on being parted out. Every week it just seems to be something else.
