Pretty standard issue.

 

the corpoate rear is awesome, it's dodges way of saying posi traction, love my 05 and it still runs strong at 135000

 

Thats a negative there, sir. Everyone has the Corporate rear axle, whether it be 8.25 (V6) or 9.25 (V8) sized. The "LD" in that line doesn't stand for Limited Slip Differential, it stands for Light Duty.

The build sheet will specifically list a limited slip differential if the truck came with one.

 

This is what you want to see on the build sheet:

DSA Anti-Spin Differential Rear Axle

 

I wish mine had one..still considering an Auburn

 

That is what I see in my build sheet! No wonder I cant have much fun in the snow . . .
