RE: powertrax noslip for rear - yes or no ?
You gonna put one in the front?
not just yet. according to the articles below, you cannot just replace the spiders/sides while everything is still inside the differential housing due to some clearance issues. instead you have to take half the truck apart and pull the differential out and then take half of it apart. i'm not up to it yet. Powertrax has two different models, the Noslip and LockRight. I opted for the Noslip in the rear because its supposed to have better road manners and this is a daily driver with light duty weekend stuff. For the front you could probably use the cheaper LockRight because it would only come into play when cad is engaged, which for me is always in mud or sand. not much snow in georgia. so road manners would be irrelevent to me on the front. so now i have a 3 wheel drive truck. no more one-wheel wonder.

Will these work in a LS diff?
yes, but it is a different part number. i got mine here, it was the cheapest place i could find.
