Yeah but a fox body carrier is also different from, say, a 99-04 new edge GT carrier. IIRC the fox body carriers are/were popular because you could wedge another clutch pack in there due to the design of the carrier.

I do see looking up the PN that it only shows 03/04 marauder, that is really strange. Of all the things Ford invested money into for this car, why would this car need its own 28 spline diff?

Apparently this seller has a NOS one on ebay

the L/S for a P71 of the same year (XW7Z-4204-BB) shows a year range of 84 to 2009 including box panthers, LTDs and Aerostars.
