Henry, does look the same i agree. Bit more pricey though, think I'll stick with the proven Detroit.

The TruTrac isn't the auto locker... that's the Detroit. And I'd agree about them for road use ;-)
The Trutrac is good on the road in my experience.

--- Quote from: "rollazuki" ---I ran a Lock-rite auto locker in the back of the zook a while ago, it was pants. I have to admit on a heavier car it may have been better, and off road it was excellent, but its road manners were atrocious. It locked in and out, banging and clattering all the time.
Ive got ARB's front and rear, Excellent, love 'em, Id advise anyone to get a pair.
I only green lane and play tho, non of that high speed stuff, so cant comment for that kind of use

I am tempted by two ARB's, I already have one on the rear BUT is the solid lock on the front that bothers me. Away from poor steering etc its the breakages CV joints and front diffs. Although I think the ARB wil give more traction, its the slight give of limite slip that tempts me.
After all a busted drive train means you go no-where

Im confused, isnt it the Detroit Trutrac??? :?
muddyweb:
There is the Tratech Trutrac - The Torque Biasing Diff (LSD Action)
There is the Tratech Detroit Auto-Locker - The Auto-Locking diff. (or more accurately the auto-unlocking diff)
