yeah thats what im thinking im going to get, the LSD and gears. How do you like your 4.10s btw? thats the route I was looking into going down. its gonna suck to get those aggressive gears and not be able to burn out because of the LSD but the burn out probley wouldnt be good for my old tranny anyways haha

There is a Lock Right locker too, I actually just got mine yesterday and will be installing tonight hopefully. I looked around and it varied in price from 420 to 450. I got mine for about 440 and I am puting full synthetic in my rear end.

Love my truetrac, just have to be a bit more careful around corners; especially when its wet.

For the record, there is a difference between an actual locker and an LSD. The former gives 100% torque to both tires when engaged, the latter splits torque in favor of the tire with better traction ("torque bias").

you have to be careful around turns as in not to go to fast and lose tracting so the LSD doesnt kick in? also how do you like the 4.10s?

Detroit lockers are ok on the road. Off road or with a load on them i have had nothing but failure. Customer service sucks. Best LSD is a factory one. Just my thoughts.
