5.4 it is! So the block im looking for is the Ford M-6010-GT
is this a good place to start? I know the actual ford GT blocks are hard to come by.

The deck height is taller. You’ll need an aftermarket hood and a 5.4 intake also.
Here’s a good rear end rebuild guide by the way:

what does everyone think about having the stock rear end weld mod, the axle tube to the housing all the way around on the outside. is this necessary for our more modern 8.8 housings?
I welded mine. Didn't go all the way around though. 3 long welds with a stick on each side. If you plan on using MIG you have to heat the center section first because its cast steel.
If you do just make sure to tack it very well. I have heard of tubes moving from the heat just enough to kill bearings repeatedly and it goes without saying all related parts. Especially the case on back brace only weld jobs.
Best possible way is on a table in a jig till cooled.

I don't have a welder so I will take it to a local shop this week, one hopefully with experience doing this sort of thing.
also are there any objections to using stock 31 spline axles out of the 2006 rear end?
Not trying to cheap out or anything but if they are good enough for my intended use I have no problem using them. they were out of a 2006 marquis with a 2.73 open diff.
just getting my parts list finalized.
also with the detroit true trac is this a c clip style diff? I have never used one or been able to examine one up close to see what method of axle retention it uses.
Here’s the difference between our stock 28 spline axles and the 31s I pulled out of my crown Vic along with its 31 spline LSD that I put a carbon fiber clutch pack into to swap into my MM:

Thanks guys, The stock 31 spline axles look great, also after counting the spline on the pinion bearing its a 30 spline. after cleaning off the bearings I noticed it came with koyo and timken for the pinion section and torrington for the axle bearings. I wonder if this is normal for the 2006 8.8's. The differential housing and seals were stamped ford for that matter. I didnt bother pulling the pinion bearing off the pinion to see what it was but for anyone interested.
with the housing fully disassembled I am trying to get a way to weld the tubes to the center section. Do I learn how to weld and buy a welder "Ive wanted to learn and get one for years anyway" or continue to search out someone to do the job.
Koyo M802011-N
Timken M88048 097
Timken M88010 097
Torrington DB-67309
Thanks Hotrod I have not decided on bearings yet, but that sounds like a good idea.
PM it over, you can email me also @ evanpaulsmith21@gmail.com
diff and gear set ordered.
is there a major difference between the doorman and metco lower control arm and watts link parts?
is the improvement over stock just due to stiffness?
is there a complete poly bushing kit for our cars? I have looked but been unable to find any.
Huge difference, dorman vs metco. Dorman stamped steel rubber bushings, metco billet aluminum, urethane bushings, greasable and far stiffer ,compliments car feel and handling
