Motive Gear makes a "Trac-Lok" (limited slip) set that ran me $250 for the Ring
and Pinion. Check with your local Differential Shop(s) and see how much they
charge for a conversion/upgrade. Labor and Gears alone shouldn't be more than
$500.
Check them out: http://www.motivegear.com (They also have a nice gear
ratio/tire size chart to boot)
