ALSO! when I had my gears installed I went ahead and pulled the trigger on a Detroit TrueTrac Limited Slip. I hated my open diff and I have to say I love my new rear end. There where several situations last weekend where I can pretty much guarantee I would have been stuck with that open rear. From being 3 inches deep in sand, to inclines covered with loose rock, this thing pulled through.

So my stock 4.10's are up for sale as well as my open diff. I'd prefer local pick up but I can ship if I have to. Im looking to get about $80 for the gears. As for the diff just make and offer, I'm sure not many people are looking for open rear ends. lol.
How much did it cost if you don't mind me asking. I'm thinking about doing the same thing when I upgrade to 32s
