decisions...

[Jeep Creep]

so i have a d44 lined up for me what i really hope someone will pick up for me when they go to noreaster COUGH WILL COUGH.
ill have just enough money left over for a locker.

do i go and lock the d44 with an aussie or some other locker? if so what locker is best for the cheapest price. preferably lunchbox.

or

lock the d30 with a detroit tru trac or some other locker

[Jeep Creep]

also, the d44 ill be getting has a LSD

[DUG]

lock the rear (D44) first.

[KtmRacer419]

lock rear.

[skitch21]

i do not have a locker but when i buy one it will be a powertrax or detroit....


i have done a lot of research and almost owned one ...but waiting to get a 44 before i lock anything,,,

powertrax being the lunch box option...

also lock the 44 before locking the front 30..You'd be surprised what open/open can do...if not rear 44 locked...wheel on that first...

Im going Aussie rear first I guess. When they are back in stock......

[grundlepunch]

spool!!! haha i would rock one but thats me.

i would never own a lunchbox locker again

i would get (in this order and depending how much money i had)

detroit, arb, ox, spool/welded spider gears

and if i didnt have enough $ for a detroit/arb i would just wait and save up more money and just do it right the first time.

aussie has been out of dana44 lockers for over a year, i remember when i got my 44 in spring last year and called them up, and they said they wouldnt have them for a couple more months when a big shipment comes in, well a year later they are still on backorder.

I ran just a front locker for a while and I think that is better than having just a rear locker. I like being able to be pulled up a ledge instead of having to bump up it for example. I ran an Aussie in front and it was great.

i vote rear because while going up a hill you have more weight on the rear tires, and your front tires have much less weight on them.

i used to think it was more benficial to have a front locker, and it is in some instances, but the more i thought about and the more rigs i saw in action, the more i leaned towards to beleiving a rear locker is better.

aussie the front and spend another 50 bucks on a mini spool for the back to keep you going til you regear then get a full spool or detroit in back

X2 on that... need a rear locker in more situations than a front

i think im going to be sticking with the LSD in the rear with no locker in front until i regear. i have heard some good things about the lsd and skitch you are right in the fact that open/open can do a lot, a lot more than ill be doing. so im going to stick with lsd and no front locker until i regear and then spend money on other things that i need.

[skitch21]

good choice....

i highly doubt a 20 year old limited slip still has life left in it
