dont spool your dd. just dont do it. sure it has the 'best' driving characteristics, as in no noises or unloading or anything, but it still drags/chirps tires around turns, and take it from me.....i ran a spool for 6 months on road, it kils your tires pretttttty quick. not worth it at all if thats really his dd then a - i feel bad for him and b - yeah definately dont spool it |

Wait, you were saying you didnt want an OX and you didnt state a reason why. Now you are saying OX. 2 minutes ago it was ARB, 3 minutes ago it was Detriot. A few months back JP Magazine's did a review on all varieties of lockers. Gives pros and cons of each one. I think before you rush out and spend $300-1000 on a locker, think about the characteristics of your vechile, what kind of trails you plan on going on, where you want your vehicle to be in 1 or 2 years, the price for a locker vs. reliability, etc. Just my $.02 |

I have a powertrax and it works fine. Its a lunchbox, yes, but thats what I had availible for my axle, and its cheap and it works, so until i get more money, ill be sticking with my powertrax.

he is doing an ox now because banditt said he can do it for him. at first the guys at banditt didnt want to touch ox's due to the way you have to set them up
