      The rear is the same, if you have 3.23's your not going to notice any difference going to 3.42s. You will enjoy the LSD however. You can purchase this from a place like summit or jegs, or you can buy it from a V8 thats being parted out.

      Or the best place to get it is buy from a v8 guy who broke an axle and plans on buying a 12 bolt. That will probably be the easiest way to get one.
