Need to check if Limited Slip or OPEN.
Sorry, the 8.8. Both are 3.73 with limited slip. If you go to the yard try to find the lowest miles possible, but also look for clean and dry. Out here in the west, the Exploders are as plentiful as any vehicle.

I take a battery powered sawzall and can have one out in about 20 minutes

Be sure to get the cables for the E-Brake and cut the companion flange off the drive shaft.

I had Chevy pattern holes put in the axles for the sedan, and then bought 5 x 4.5 pattern IFS for the front of the 3100 so the wheels all have the same pattern
