    In response to Allan In NE

I guess I had the limited slip rear in mind. I went back and got the donor and cut out the axle. It's a 3.73 open differential. The one in the truck now is 4.11. Maybe the spedometer will be closer to correct. It's running a 700r4 so the 3.73 is probably a better gear anyway. It's out and mostly cleaned up, I hope to paint it tomorrow and start swapping them out.
