Have you thought about putting a limited slip carrier in it?

Yeah, you can get a trac-lok and throw it in there. Obviously it might need different shims and such. It's not too difficult..

Yup. I would replace the clutches before installing a used carrier but it should bolt right in. Carrier shims may be different but that isn't a big deal.

I'll second the suggestion of upgrading to traction lock limited slip.

I just put in a trac lock over summer, what a difference. I dont even use my 4x4 in the snow anymore. I would get one esp since your trucks only 2wd
