Guys, I know it's a one legger, I only spin one tire. I was pissed at myself for buying a truck with a one legger, I always get an LS rearend. When I bought the truck, KBB.com said the Big Horn Edition (which my truck is) had 20's, Hemi, 3.92 gears and an Anti Spin rear end. When I read the window sticker and it said Big Horn Edition, then I saw it had a Hemi, 20's and 3.92 gears, I assumed it had an Anti Spin (LS) rearend even though the window sticker didn't say it did. Well my first burn out (the day after I bought it ) told me it had a one legger. I was pissed for a long time, I've gotten over it but I would like to get an LS rear installed but that would void the 7/70 warranty on my rear end.

Well, you are the first I know of that has the open rear and that gear set.... I was going to tell you to look at the sticker on the axle as that tells all but you, already having done that, shot that idea out the window. The LS center section can be installed and I did it myself on my 99 Ram but tis a pain and more so if you are not set up for it.

Yall want to hear something funny...............I work with a guy that has just bought his first truck, its like a 98 chevy 4 x 4, it was a one owner and I don't think it ever hit anything but pavement, clean as a new one, it was a awesome find for a used truck. I looked at it Monday night and I asked him what he had under the hood.............he looks at me says......"I got one of them big HEMIs"..................he was just kidding but I thought it was funny when he said that, see the commericals do work...........!
