Default Butt Stuff?

Like an 8.8 rearend... Got your attention, didn’t I you sick bastard...

My baby is going in for a “colonoscopy” today and I suspect the clutch packs will need replacing... Which sucks, BUT I’d already getting pretty damn excited at my first potential upgrades in a couple years. What should I be considering?

FR500S T2-R Torsion Diff? Is this thing any louder or less daily drivable than the standard trac-lok?
GT500 Diff Cover? Seems like a no brained for the cooling and fill/drain plugs.

Have a one piece alum DS, turkey baster, Upper link...

What else? Pretty happy with my gear ratio. Don’t think I want to jump that up from the 3.73.

Thanks in advance.

Only thing I have driven with the Torsion was a 2013 Raptor and did not notice any extra noise, I did figure out if mine goes out in my 13 it is getting the Torsion since it is a good road course rear end and I like playing in the mountains.
In fact Many moons ago we used to race on highway 7 from Allenspark to Lyons and over Trailridge pass at night from just outside of Estes Park to just before Grand Lake.
