burrellsjeep has some good points.
as a side note, aussie's are very easy to install yourself if you want to save the money.
oh, and the 8.8s with the LSD have a weaker carrier that also limits lunchbox locker selection.
I don't know what I had in my 8.8...but I just sold it for $450--setup for SUA, aussie installed, 410s, warn diff guard. they aren't too expensive, as far as axle upgrades go. I never once had a problem with mine, and never had to worry about it breaking.
I did start to snap d30 shafts...but it was after 5 years of wheeling, and odd circumstance mostly. that's a good front axle for tires <35" (locked)
