The difference is the size of the gears. 4.10 is a lower gear and would be better for towing very heavy loads especially in the hills or on surface streets.. 3.55 does well towing but is a higher gear set and will give you better mileage on the freeway.

Limited slip will give you better traction. the drive tire is allowed to slip to a certain extent before traction is transfered to the opposite tire for assistance.

non-limited slip means only one drive tire... don't get it stuck or you'll never get it out!

I tow about 3,500lb trailer and load up on camping gear and travel severe back roads and dirt trails and my Dana 60 limited slip w/3.73 gears and it does just fine.
in my opinion I would choose the 4.10 limited slip!

Fuel trim at limit indicates that the computer's ability to adjust the fuel mixture has maxed out. There should be a rich or lean code with these. If those are the only codes, clear them and see if they return.

A limited slip axle has a clutch that reduces the slip between the rear tires. So in slippery conditions both wheels have drive while a non-limted slip would only drive one wheel. So you would just spin the one rear wheel that has less traction. Unless you go offroad or drive in snow/ice, you don't need the limited slip axle.

Thanks for Your answers and respect for You both

! I'm writing private because i need help further and i have limited time to fix my clubwagon. About codes: yes, there are two other codes about too lean (fuel?) in "bank1" and "bank2" besides the ones iwrote earlier. What does it means?

Too lean bank one and two means that the oxygen sensors on both sides of the motor are reading lean. You can therefore assume that the engine is running lean enough that the PCM cannot adjust far enough to bring it into proper ratio.

Clearly you have a very lean condition that must be addressed. The first thing to check is fuel pressure. The regulator may be bad, or you may have a stopped up fuel filter or a fuel pump that is failing. Even a crimped fuel line could do it.

Good Luck,
