got them installed by a member from here, "axisT6" hes a cool guy and did a very good job, pays attention to everything, the shims kinda kicked his *** but after an hour or 2 he finally got it, rides fine and i dont hear and whining from the rear end, great install all together, if anybody needs any rear end work, let him know

Too bad I'm not close to Houston. I'm thinking about installing a TruTrac soon. So....how does your truck perform now? I know you're supposed to take it easy for a while but how's the truck run under moderate acceleration?

I went from 3.42's to 4.10's and it was definitely noticeable. Hoping to break into the 14's next time at the track...
