Buy a used G-80 for the cheapest way. I recommend a Tru-Trak though....

You have 30 spline axles Sir. Also, to ease your install if you do it, 3.73 gears use 0.032"-0.033" pinion shim.

Also, Yukon has recently released their "Dura-Grip" which is basically an Eaton posi. It is cheaper than a tru-trac even.

Lock rite or ez locker.
If you're gonna change gears I'd go with a tru trac personally.
Absolute cheapest would be the "Lincoln locker"
