Dang, everyone is getting beefy axles. I need to hop on this bandwagon!

Can't wait to see updates. How much of an aftermarket is there for the Sterling? I know aftermarket for the 60 is enormous.

It is getting better with the popularity of the super duty. There are a few lockers and almost any ratio r&p you would need.

In my reserch I believe the ABS will work with the WJ (I hope)

Ok go look at post 31 of this thread and look at the sliders and the plate steel angling back to the 3"x4" frame stiffener making it smooth bottom'd like a boat

If you have an XJ you should go look at ericsxj.com for a sick rig (for an XJ )

I have the same axles in my superduty, On the ford truck forum, every body usually recommends the Detroit Lockers for the Sterling. If it can handle the pounding of a deisel engine, it will last forever in your Grand.
