8.8 gear swap question - Pirate4x4.Com : 4x4 and Off-Road Forum

i have an 8.8 from a mustang with 2.73, disc, and limited slip. my question is, when i swap the gears to 4.10 will the limited slip still work or will i have to run a locker or slip specifically for the 4.10 gears. oh another question will i have to use any spacers or such to switch to the 4.10? This rearend will be going under an s10 blazer, that is getting a sfa swap.

the 8.8 has no carrier break, here is a helpful link it covers the setup as well as a couple of options on rebuilding the tracloc for a firmer action.
