With lockers I AM SURPRISED at how I do not need 4x4 to get through a lot of terrane I previously needed 4x4. When in sand dunes etc... in 4x4 with 2 lockers it goes far better with them. I have Ausie lockers and do not notice bad driving or noise. I have not used them in snow or ice but have had no issue on street or off road.

Loved this video. Wished it was around before I spent big money and cumulative precious time dealing with ARBs. Unconditionally avoid ARBs! Had ARBs installed with gear change into my '87 XJ Dana 44 back in 2004. Was told they were bullet proof. On test drive following installation, front "lollipop" failed because of bad solder joint at seal housing. Shop honored the work, but missed trip opportunity due to additional time required for rework. I've experienced compressor and line failures on every rock crawling trip I've ever taken. Trail repairs inevitable, and I only get out a couple times a year, Moab and Colorado. Two weeks ago replaced third compressor only to discover hissing in rear Dana 44. Rear engages, but compressor runs continuously. I'm considering a lunch box replacement for the rear, something I can install. I totally agree about the simplicity of the Ox locker cable setup, but do not want to re-buy at near ARB prices. Consider yourselves warned, an advantage I didn't have. Google "ARB air leaks".

i kinda went the backwards way with my jeep, i have a spartan lunch box in my d30, with the right gear oil, i havent had any problems with it, it is completely unnoticeable while driving on the street. For the rear i have an ARB air locker in my ford 8.8, i have on board air so i just tapped into it so it just made sense to go that route.

@codymoncrief2128
@codymoncrief2128 7 років тому
The truetrac uses helical gears' own worst enemy to function. Helical gears create axial thrust when they turn eachother, which normally means they require special bearings. The greater force/ resistance of each gear (heavy load) the more axial thrust they create. This axial thrust is manipulated by the truetrac. When the differential is operating on pavement, the gears allow normal function, as there is low resistance to turning. However, during traction loss, one wheel has significant resistance in contrast to the other wheel. This resistance creates high thrust load, which causes the Helical output (splined to shaft) gear to push against the end of the carrier. As resistance builds, so does thrust. The pressure creates friction between the gear and carrier, thus effectively locking the differential together. When input torque is increased, the clamping force, and therefore friction is increased and the differential locks even tighter, but as soon as torque reduces past a certain point, the diff will unlock and resume normal function.

After having numerous lockers over the past 18 yrs. From lunchbox lockers to selectibles. When the locker goes out it takes the axle out as well and needs a rebuilt if not too worn. Having a daily driver XJ I've put a ton of miles on, which also limits your front options. At one point I wanted to install a hub conversion but it's not worth the $$$. So my latest units are truetracs. So far VERY impressed. On road is great also, hardly noticed. Off-road even better. Hells revenge tested and approved. My rig is built for reliability and takes me every where I want to go. Snow runs are my favorite.
@streetfighterguy1909
@streetfighterguy1909 5 років тому
Truetracs seem to be the best upgrade from everyone's comments and I will give it a go in the back of my 92 Toyota pickup, I'll leave the front alone for now since I have a 12,000 lb winch up there for those true emergencies.

I ran a Powertrax lunchbox locker in my el Camino and it was horrible in the rain. it would send the tail end into the other lane when it would unlock, I cant imagine what it would do in the snow. Was great for straight line traction though and was really simple to install. It would pop when it unlocked and was really unpredictable, sometimes it would unlock around a corner, sometimes it would just drag the tire. Finally just switched it out for an Eaton Tru-Trac and was never happier.

I've driven a mustang with a spool on the street. Short of parking lots hopping and skipping, there was no major disadvantage. Even been in the rain with them and once in the snow; just have to know how to handle the car. One thing I liked about them was that the car was much more predictable in a drift - compared to the limited slips it had destroyed in the past - it just felt more natural and much more precise having the back wheels spin at the same time and knowing you're gonna go forward no matter what.

Well done video, I could not agree more. I will add this, I have a Detroit up front in my Dana 60 king pin. With selectable hubs you can get away with it and there are some good choices out there to convert to manual hubs which last longer and in my book just work better.

Wow great vid.. For a big truck like my 99f350 there is nothing like the detroits.. I have both ends locked. The truck is a beast drives great no switching no noise. I plow and use it as a work truck... Very rarely drive in 4wd on the road. Dont need to unless lots of snow.. then under 40 mph usually...2 tires on ice no problem...

I've ran an eaton e-locker for about 6 mo, wheeling around Wyoming and Colorado mostly. It has worked well so far, I do wish there was an audible noise for me to hear it engage/disengage. Of course you can tell by turning radius, but it's a quality of life thing.

I just bought a Toyota 4 Runner with some sort of locker in the front. It snowed today so I took it out. It has 35 in mud tires too. So I'm in a snowy parking lot and was trying it out and it worked great. So I took it out of 4 hi and tried driving my it and as soon as I hit a dry patch I almost could not turn. I had to get out and unlock the hubs. I think I might have a detroit locker because I can't hear any poping are noises. When the hubs are unlocked each tire is able to turn independently but when locked go the same direction. Still learning but at least it has some sort of traction adder. I might have to test into it to find out. But I think I'm getting an Ox locker with cable and shifter because it's less to break and easier to fix if it does. Plus I here good things about them. Thanks for all the info

Realize this is old, but i found it just in time. Am moving from 307s to 458s on a TJ and was in need of an education on LS vs Lockers and overview of the different options as the labor is not cheap- certainly the right time to add some traction! new 458s, super 35 w/ an LSD is in the budget, lockers are not. I don't go to crazy off road- should suit my needs just fine. Thanks for the video!
