Question Received Build Sheet, what does this mean,....

Ok, I have one line I would like to clarify, is this Dodge's way of saying it has a Limited Slip in the rear axle?
If so, this one has 191,xxx miles on it, can they be rebuilt or is it cheaper/better to replace it with a new/better one?
Thanks.

Default Factory L/S,....

No 'problem' that I know of, but in the dirt it seems to act more like a open diff versus a L/S. So the question still stands, should I rebuild the factory Anti-Slip Diff or buy a new one, like a Yukon Dura Grip?

Your clutches are likely going out. I learned that the back end of the LSD equipped trucks will whip out in the dirt when you get on them and turn (), so if it doesn't do that, the clutches might be shot.

A new LSD would be nice if you've got the cash. Depending on your tire size, you might wanna go ahead (lmao) and do gears too.
