well i have been an automotive mechanic for 10 yrs professionally and got lucky enough that i had never rebuilt a rear differential before; now that i have i do not know what i was afraid of; it was easy but time consuming, with a little guidance from two coworkers that were mopar techs previously
made me feel safe that i would not have to take it apart again.
i replaced all the bearings,races and seals and put the auburn
differential in but kept the original ring and pinion because they were still good total cost $508.01 not bad at all.
now my 97 dodge ram 1500 is more quiet than its ever been and it has more of a crisp engagement and when im burnin rubber it feels like a tank {unbreakable} i like it alot.thanks guys good product

Vehicle: 2000 DODGE Ram 1500
One GREAT differential! I purchased this product as a replacement for the [junk] differential that was installed at the factory. Right out of the box, this thing looked 10x stronger than what came in the truck [2000 Dodge Ram 1500 4x4]. I had taken my truck to a repair shop after noticing a metallic look to the oil during maintenance [thrust washer / clutch pack failed] and was quoted around $1,200 for a replacement; I completed it for under $700 - including special tools. I have a fair amount of experience with engines [4 rebuilds] but had never tackled anything with gears. My dad and I
completed the project in about 7 hours of [easy] work and I was back on the road. The following Friday [6 days later] I drove the truck to Nashville, TN and back [1,000 miles] without any problems. Needless to say, I'm very pleased with my purchase. Truck Performance came through again; I kept checking the order status and by the time they updated the item as shipped, it was literally sitting on my door step.
Great LS unit!
