Dustin, I`m not there yet with the rear axle but hope to soon though. I didn`t know if you`re still interested in the beast or not.

One thing I should point out is the limited slip most likely will need new clutches and that will require disassembly of the carrier.

Thats pretty common for used limited slip. Might as well get done while its out anyways.

Any way to find out if it`s hooped without taking it all apart?

Jack up both sides of the truck and put it in neutral. Spin a tire and if the other side spins in the same direction then the limited slip still functions.

Under these conditions the 56 will never leave it`s cozy garage, certainly not with any snow around.
After all this work it will be a total garage queen.
