Mickey -

Great decision, you will be pleased. I do not know the construction of the
limited slip feature but some of them require a specific lubricant to
function properly so use what Jim K recommends.

I'm jealous!

The deed is done....

Just ordered the 3.70 with the limited slip option. Biting the bullet on
the cost. Also the speedometer reducer for 225/75R16 wheels/tires. All
this based on the responses all of you provided.

Told to use blue locktite and 100 ft lbs plus on the nuts. Going with the
standard cover. Put 60W90 non-synthetic lube in it for the first 1000-2000
miles. It might be a bit noisy at first. Change the lube to 60W90
synthetic without additives after that. May bump-up the timing a couple
degrees.

Comments appreciated...
