I was just wondering if someone could tell me the exact differences between the Detroit locker and the Detroit Tru Trac. I was just wondering because I dont want to only have one tire spinning when I am in 2wd or in 4wd, but I do alot of daily driving so I don't want it to be ratcheting around the corner. I am probably going to have 37'' tires and 4.56 gears if that makes a difference.

Thanks Hammer that was a really informative site. I think I will go with the Tru Trac because the Lockers will probably ratchet around town and I don't think that I will need lockers that badly. It seems like they will do the job in my limited off roading and excessive amount of snow driving. lol What can I do for the front axel though so I can get all four spinning instead of just 3?

That is very upsetting. oh well i guess. Hammer what have you heard about that readylift from fat bob's garage that is 3'' torsion keys in the front and 2'' in the back using add a leafs? I am looking to do that because if I do that and add a 3'' PA BL then I could do a very similar set up to dodgenittos and clear the 37's, not to mention save $1500. I don't really pound it off roading and I am young and don't have a bank full of money so that would probably be the way to go.

Well, I ain't Weightlifter500, but I figure I'd save you the time of him asking me, to tell you.

Probably one of the top two or three places in the country for Mopar engine performance.
