DETROIT LOCKERS AND DETROIT TRUETRACS

sorry for the caps in the title ...copy n paste makes you lazy :?

OK on with the question

My rear diff appears to be on the way out (probably got a fair bit of time in it yet though) and I am thinking of saving my pennies up to get one of the above.

So what are peoples thoughts on them?

Worth the money?

Are they easy to fit?

Angry Badger:
I've got  a Detroit rear locker and a Truetrac front in my Rangie.  Well pleased with them so far.  Hardly notice them there.  Putting the Truetrac in the front helped to "balance" the car out a bit due to the fact the rear was a little bit lively on greasy roundabouts (using a heavy foot) with just the rear locker.  I have to say the Rangie drives better now than as standard.

Can't help with the "easy to put in" question.  Fitting the diff assemblies is a piece of cake, but I didn't build the diffs up because of changing ratios at the same time.

Verdict, well worth the money and effort.

rollazuki:
lively in roundabouts :lol:

when I had a lockrite in the zook I took it out and flogged it. It was awfull


ARB's all the way

Range Rover Blues:
I have ARB, love them.  Sometimes a full on locker is too much, but as I've never driven one and there are plenty of folks around who like them, I'm not going to put them down.

unknownmanxman:
If you've ever replaced one of your own diffs, thats how easy it is to put a detroit or truetrac in..

Ive got both in my 90 and its fantastic..
