Winston you nailed it. Here are the pics of the progress thus far. We had to be really careful taking it out as it was locked solid, zero play.

Broke/stripped carrier bolts on the OEM Tru Trac.

Here are some hints at my sercet project I'm speeding up. I've been working on this for about 6 weeks now. This will give it away but some parts came from Sharadon and the rest from here.

Yes, I'm now installing the Auburn LSD I bought like 6 months ago, lol.
I had to get a new ABS tone ring though.

Old LSD next to the new one. I've got to get the 4.10 gear ring off as the OEM diff carrier is trashed.

If I didn't have the clutch gears, and planetary gears out I would say right on the money! I did get a Sharadon stage 3 vavle body though.

Do you guys remember the 06 R/T with 18,000 miles that was on ebay two months ago? I bought the 545-RFE out of it for $500 shipped and have been building a stage 2 transmission. It will have a Sheradon Stage 3 valve body. I didn't have 3k to buy one so I've been building one with the help of a friend Mike that is a transmission guru.
