    One more question regarding oil filters. Are there any extended capacity oil filters available for the 4.6?

      Found a write up for the gear replacement that doesn't require membership to see: http://www.lincolnsonline.com/tech/00314.html

      And if you have rear end noise... you'll have to check the axles/bearings for wear. If the noise is present, something needs replacing. Just putting in new gear oil will not help.

        Negative... FL820 is the only filter to use.

          Agreed... remove the diff cover, remove the spider gear center pin, remove the axle C-clips and slide both axles out. that is the only way to check for damage to axles and bearings.
