If you just want a limited slip differential (like the rear's...) you can get one aftermarket like...

They offer better traction than an open axle, but without the weird clicking that a true locker produces.


Or, if you want a locker type you can use the stock carrier and install something like the Spartan Locker. It will work in the Ford's 8.8 front axle. Pretty easy install. I locker will make a clicking sound in tight turns on dry pavement. Some people find that annoying.

There's some YouTube videos out there on the install.
