Help with gears and front LS

[Osmosis]

Making the change for 4.88 gears and have a couple questions (surely foolish ones ). Is there a difference between "Motive" "motive performance" "platinum performance" "platinum torque" "Richmond" or "spicer" gears other than a buck or two price change? The site I found and am thinking of ordering from is "accu auto".
Looks like $150-$185 for rear, and $147-$158 for the front. Reasonable enough prices?

Also what limited slips are being used with success in the front ends? Going either spool or aussie in the back.

I am running 35" after a 4" trailmaster, SOA, and probably an excessive torsion twist.
I have a clunking in the front end that I think may be the cv's towards maxed out angles, but I'm not sure with my digging around so far.

Thanks for any help folks!

Sadly, most gears are made overseas at only a few plants. Lots of these gears are sold under different company names, but manufactured in the same plant.

Try my4by.com for gear prices, and contact them for any questions you may have. Very friendly service with them.

Richmond Gear has the auto locker that works well with the IFS D35. Part # 2311-LR Also for the rear 8.8 Part # 1822-LR

Detroit makes a great locker for the 8.8

More than likely it is the CV's your hearing. They can only go so high with the TT. Real high and you lose droop inches, better not to crank too much.

Thanks!
That's what I was assuming about the gears, same with many of the things in my industry.
Thanks for the alternate good site to check out, the gear prices were pretty much the same now it depends who ships cheaper.

Yeah I have a feeling it's the CV's too
