Hi, I just picked up a 2014 RAM regular cab short bed with 5.7 and 8 speed. Here is a link to original equipment:

So, first day I laid down a beautiful burnout with two tires marks. Nice, long and wavy.

Well tonight I laid down a peg leg one tire burnout. Twice. I'm not sure what is happening here.

To the best of my knowledge my original equipment list doesn't include the no slip differential.

Well, I can't have a peg legger RWD V8. Can't do it. I'm looking for recommendations for the cheapest differential upgrade that is good quality. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!

Junkyard factory LSD unit with 3.92 gears would probably be the absolute cheapest since you can do all the work yourself if your even barely mechanically inclined.
