Hello, again.

I almost ordered a Powertrax Locker today, but was stunned at the price. 417.13 from Summit! Is there a comprable bang for your buck locker out there that doesn't have such a high price tag? What are you running and why?

Thank you for you input.

I've always had good luck with the Detroit 'Soft' Locker.
Very dependable and street friendly.

Need some vehicle info.

I used Just Differentials on Ebay and they had the best price at the time. Go to the Richmond Gear site and figure out what part number you need and do a net search for that number. LockRites are usually cheaper than the No-slips.

About $2.75 worth of welding rod makes an inexpensive locker. Lol. Just kidding. Lots of options out there. I too would look towards Randys.

Eric. I was looking at lockers and their price tags an thought that I could just weld the damn thing and be done with it LOL ... but then i remembered that functionality and general purpose driving is going out the window when I try to turn to quick. I went on Randy's and didnt find anything except diff covers.

When you get to the diff covers you must select one so that the parts for that rear and only that rear will show up on the next screen. Their lists are extensive.
