You will have to go with the non ZF 9.25 and use 2010 and older 9.25 and replace one axle
same as the trutrac explained on this site somewhere

Thank you. Anyone in Chicago area that will do that?
Everyone I call thinks I'm crazy.

Are you running an 8 speed? Why such low gears? 4.56 is super low for an 8 speed truck unless running 38-40” tires

I’m curious how it’ll feel with the 37s. I dint mind my truck with the 3.92 and 35s. What does your rim and tire combo weigh?

I need them to hurry up. My factory lsd doesn’t seem to like my 103lb rim and tire combo so much... it does it’s job though. I also think that’s partly due to the design

Its over 100lb. Not exactly sure. Vision razor 24x12. Road one 37x24s
Might go with 4.11 now.
But really want that true track.

If I didn’t have 3.92 I would swap to 4.10 for my 35s. It’s definitely not needed with the 8 speed though. 4.10 would probably be fine on 37s
