Detroit locker and truetrac
« on: June 26, 2008, 07:13:46 »
right you opinions please i am not in the slightest bit interested in the on road performance all i want to know is what they are like off the road?

i.e are they strong and do they do what they say on the tin?

as id like locking diffs but do not want the hassle of arb's

Many thanks

I've got truetracs front and rear in my offroader.
I personally like them, and have found them quite effective especially if you get used to left foot braking to help them 'lock up'.
Less likely to rip the rest of your drivetrain apart unlike full lockers.

But as david p pointed out, there are lots of threads on here about lockers if you do a search.

if you plan to fit 35s dont use a detroit & use ARBs as they can explode
