junk yard score
I have been looking for awhile for a limited slip rear end for my truck since it is an open axle and spins on wet grass 
but while I was cruising the local pullapart I found a nugget, a 92 350 cc with a trak lok rear 
, I used FTE to decode the axle to make sure, pulled the cover and bam a limited slip setup for my truck! the gears look real good, no debris in the bottom of the chunk, the clutches look good, and the fluid looked pretty good as well so for $65 I feel like I did pretty well. I will swap my ring gear over since it is a different gear ratio and go to town. I just have to wait until I can have it down for a day or so, so I can make sure I get it set up right. I am hoping once I mic the old shims and the ones in mine now that they are really close so I don't have to do too much work to get it set up right

$65 for it, thanks for the offer, my truck is a 3.55 now, I am just going to swap my ring gear onto the housing and I should be in business, if by chance someone needs a 4.10 ring gear just let me know and when I install this thing you are welcome to it

He's swapping his old ring gear on to a new carrier.
