Those bearing surfaces don't look to good. You can using any gear set from a 8.8 in it. Its recommended to get a case spreader when doing an aluminumn chunk like that to get the backlash set correctly
Btw I have a whole pumpkin from an 03 irs for sale if your interested in it. 3:55 gears stock in them

+1 on the bearing surfaces. Never seen any that bad.
What do you mean any 8.8? You mean the carrier assy? Being that this is an 01 cobra, it will have to be a 31 spline setup so that the halfshafts will go back in

 The spider gears are different on a 31 spline as well. They have a larger diameter hole in the center for the crosspin. If you have a pull a part close by,the '95 up Explorers,and '86 up (IIRC) F/E series trucks/vans have 31 spline 8.8's.
