You must not have a limited slip differential. The diff in your truck is a open diff therefore only one wheel is going to spin.

Yes. You can go from an open did to an LSD. I would suggest a gear swap at the same time. I went to 4.56 with an auburn LSD when I changed mine.

4.56s will really wake up your truck and a lsd is a must.

Just gotta relearn the throttle response. You will prob get gains in the city and depending how you are on the highway you may maintain or gain 1 or 2.
