Dana 60 Questions.

I have a 77 F250 Supercab 2wd with a Dana 60 open diff. and 3.54 gear ratio. I use this truck for towing a car trailer and cutting wood. I would like to install a limited slip diff. in my rear end but do not know which one or what spline I have. It is my understanding that the ratcheting type locker is not good for towing so I would like to stick with a clutch type. Any ideas? What have others used?

Powerlock. Don't waste money on a trac lock. Powerlocks are the best posi ever made and you're lucky enough to own a dana 60 which is very easy and affordable to buy one for. You should have 30 spline axles, but it's easy to check by pulling an axle.
