Axle truss

[Budneeds2beers]

Hey guys im looking to truss my rearend and ive found one im liking. The only thing is when i try to order it, it asks what year dodge aam 11.5 I have 03-05 without casting gussets or 05 to current with casting gussets? So im not sure about that. I emailed the support and the response i got trew me off even more. They said "Check your housing for the large integrated truss ribs to see which truss style will fit your axle." I have never heard this before so im not sure what he is asking. Anyone have a clue?
The Item # TRU-1206-01 for the truss and my truck is a 04 lly.

I think they mean the gussets on all 4 corners of the newer dodge aam's. Like this pic https://goo.gl/images/tgSpv7

But you have a GM. Sounds like they may not offer one for the GM AAM?

Edit: I'll bet the with-gussets design for the dodge fits the GM 1150. If you compare the two axles, i think they'd be similar enough that the truss works on either the newer dodge or your GM

Yeah in the description it says it works with gm. Although at the end it says to contact them for fitment on gm. I emailed them and thats what they asked me to look at/measure??? I just checked artec and the only thing they ask is axle tube diameter. Could this be what he is referring too?

The artec industries one is only able to work in trucks with no leaf springs. Tried to order last year for pulling for a 3rd member and it goes the whole way out each axle tube.
