Rear axle slpines and LSD ?'s

so just got back from Baghdad,Iraq and have the time/money to play with the truck finally. i have done a few things to it already like a 2.5" leveling kit, ball joints, brakes, rotors, 17x9 Dick Cepek DC-1 with 33x12.50 terra grapplers and a 4" MBRP turbo back exhaust. but i didnt get the new tires until after all the snow and the old ones sucked bad. luckily i did not get stuck in the snow but there were a few times i had a little puckering of the butt hole going on. so after much reading i have decided of the Eaton Tru trac LSD to put in the rear and maybe the elocker in the front. but i cannot for the life of me find information on 1. what size rear end i have, 2. how many axle slpines i have 30 or 35 and 3. what axle do i have in the front end? i know that you can help me i just hope that you arent to tired of saying the same things over again to a simple shade tree guy.
thanks

ps it truly is all about the man standing next to you!

Thanks for your service. What are you driving year/model,etc? Probably Dana hi-pinion 60 35 spline up front & 10.50 35 spline Sterling in the rear. But that's just an assumption. You know about assuming,right.

Lots of venders out there. First check the ones that support this site. Check everywhere Randy's Ring & Pinion. The Differential Experts. Auto Parts & Services., Performance Off Road Center I've even had good luck on e-bay, craigslist, pirate4x4.com has vendors. Just shop around for the best deal.

that was my ride in Iraq, it is actually a Cougar, the buffalo's little brother. it was bad ***! we came under fire it in, got hit by IEDs in it and carried more than 10 generals ranging from 1 star to well now he is a 4 star, was a 3 star then, Air Force LTG Gary North. I worked out of the IZ for a command called MNSTC-I, was a good gig, got to see the country and the time went by quickly. thanks for asking.
