Quiz time. Is this an open differential, or does it have the factory lsd in it?
Answer: It has to be open because if it was a tru-loc you would have a bunch of retainer clips laying on the magnet at the bottom....

RE: Rear locker?
You guys are right... as usual. I hate getting fed false info like that. That was gonna cost ridiculous amout. Right now I can get both the front and the backtruetrac for ... around $850 to my door. Not so bad after all. Infact the Powertrax that I was looking at was the no-slip and would cost $500 ea. so already im getting what I want. My roommate up here at college is gonna give me a hand with install, infact I've tossed it around so much that he is going to put one in his monte carlo when he gets done his new motor swap. Were gonna do em together.

unless your doing some really really nasty killer mudding, i think putting one in the rear only, along with some good mud tires will take you whereever you want to go and back.
the rear install is pretty easy.
beware, the front is a lot of work.. http://www.pavementsucks.com/tech/lockright.php

why not look into an e-locker... push a button and lock the rear when you need it. Eaton I think makes them as well as a few other manufactures

In fact there is only one automatic full case locker at all and that is the Detroit (outside of a spool). The choices with the 9.25 are very limited which always drove me nuts when I had my 1/2 ton axles because I always thought with so many out there, the aftermarket manufacturers were missing the boat by not making a 9.25 application.
Now I have Dana 60's and ARB's front and rear and couldn't be happier!

RE: Rear locker?
Well I just got off the phone with eaton. They told me that the rear would be no problem. The front dana 44 is held in differently??? aparently and he said that I would have to use a spring "to retain the axles" or something because c-clips dont work with theirs or something. I am not going with powertrax. So from this point I am definatly getting the rear. But has anyone put one of these in a front dana 44?

why dont you look at an ox locker, cable accuated. all you have to do to lock the diff is pull the cable, got one in both front and back of my jeep, awesome offroad performance. and then when you want to get back on the highway, just get on dry area, then push the cable and your good to go on the road with an open diff.

RE: Rear locker?
Mainly because its $370 vs. $800 + If i can find someone that installed a truetrac in there dana 44, im all set. I just dont know what spring he is talking about. I just looked in the shop manual and saw nothign about c clips or c locks (what they call it on the 9 1/4 i guess) ... so maybe he just thought of the wrong application. LOL why do i always get the wrong info??? lol

The rear is a c-clip. Not sure what they are talking about for the front. I have an Auburn posi in the rear http://www.auburngear.com/aftermarket/products/differentials/
