Here is a stupid question....do we all have Limited Slip Difs?

Thanks

I also just came across some old receipts from the previous owner....he had ONE rear axle replaced last year, but not the other...will that cause some of this?

I have noticed I can MAKE this shudder happen and hold it there....going up my sloped driveway and keeping my foot out of the gas...it shudders like a mf'er until i give it enough gas to get past it......thoughts?

Tag Rear Diff. 3L55975 7B28 Tag Front Diff. 355 88 7B26

If the metal tag attached to a bolt on the back of the pumpkin has an "L" after the first number it is "limited slip".
A steady shudder under load going straight could be the infamous "torque converter shudder" or "U" joints.
