Gear swap question
Ok need some advice. I am dropping of my truck tuesday for a 4.56 gear swap.
After going to ford I found out I had a open diff. Thought it was a limited slip. Question is should I buy one and what brand ,the factory ford one is $325.00. Oh its a 8.8 axel for more info.

Definitely worth it to get a limited slip if you are ever off the pavement. I would have chosen the Detroit Tru-trac LS since it is not clutch driven and will never wear out and frankly many claim it performs close to that of a true locker when in real slick stuff. Either way, I think you will be very happy.

It turned out great all the power is back no more constant shifting out of overdrive on the freeway. They ended up putting a eaton posi in instead of the auburn ls because it didn't come in. I wish I ordered the tru trac instead. But the posi chirps the tires with very little effort. I have 2,000 miles on them now changed the fluid out and all looks good. Four wheel parts did a nice job and all for 1,945 including 3 year 36,000 extreme plus warranty and the posi in the rear.
