Hi,I recently purchased my first Dodge.It's a2008 1500 SLTRam 4 wheel drive.I now have realized after purchase that the rear end is open, not anti slip.I would like to change it over to a posi.Any opinions on the Richmond Powertrax ,Detroitlocker etc.I was a previousFord truck owner and everydifferential I had was always limited slip.I missed that one on purchase.I drive 90% Hwy dry,snow, ice etc.......Regards,

 

You're better off...the factory LSD is a turd. I'd go with a Auburn or Eaton if it was me...in that order. What gearing did you get?

 

Thanks for your reply........3.92

 

I have the Auburn Gear LSD, works great. Locks up great when you need it and don't know it's there when you don't...

 

Thank you.........Auburn LSD is the direction I'm heading in. Regards,Ironbyron

 

I made the same mistake and bought one with 3.92s and an open differental. After 35k miles of tires spinning through 3rd gear, I bought a Detroit Locker TruTrac and couldn't be happier with it. I can only break the tires loose when I try. I have had the new diff for about 8k miles and no problems yet. Decided to go with the Detroit because it is a clutchless system unlike the Stock, Auburn, and many others. With the 33s that come with the Ram's is right about at the limit of clutch baised rear-ends capability

 

Good info, thanks for the reply, Regards,Ironbyron
