Bearing kit for sure, a LSD if you like, it makes sense since there won't be any additional labor charges, a hand held tuner or speed-cal to recalibrate the speedometer, and some good quality dif lube. I recommend Royal Purple.

Do the TrueTrac and the gears at the same time ... it only makes sense. Does anyone know why you would need a bearing kit? I've heard if you've had 'high mileage', but whats the number? I have an 03 with 51k on it.

Saved up and getting gears and the truetrac this month...

Why take chances. Do the bearings while everything is apart. That way you won't have to do them in like 25000 miles.
