You can buy a locker/limited slip/whatever for the dana 60. They are very popular and easy to find. Installing one is up to a professional, or someone with experience. You don't want to learn on your truck in my opinion. Good luck. Another option tht may be cheaper is to go to a pick and pull or salvage yard and find one already installed.

>how can i identify one in
>the junk yard
most will have a tag that states something like "use limited slip oil only" on them with the id tag. some id tags will have ratio and ls ie. xxxx 3.54 LS
Also, if you can spin one rear tire while elevated, the other side will turn the same direction if limited slip. Open differentials spin in opposite directions

good luck
