choosing a selectable locker
I am getting ready to put a Dana 44 rear end in my 89 Jeep Wrangler and
want to put in a locker. I am considering going with a selectable
locker because I do drive my jeep on pavement quite a bit and we take
several trips to the snow each year. I don't want to go with an ARB
locker-too much work and was interested in hearing about experiences
with the Eaton Elocker. Any other suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks

Re: choosing a selectable locker
I don't believe it's a available for the Dana:
http://www.traction.eaton.com/prod7.htm I don't think you can beat a
stock limited slip, except with the Lincoln locker and these don't pull
any tricks on you like the Detroit. And you won't repairing the hose
every couple of feet.

Re: choosing a selectable locker
Another option is the Detroit Electrac. Operates as a helical gear-based
limited slip when unlocked.
http://www.tractech.com/docs/DetroitElectrac04.pdf
http://www.tractech.com/docs/ElectracInstall.pdf
I don't have any experience with the Electrac, but I do have something
similar: an OEM Tru-Lok pulled from a Wrangler Rubicon. It too is
selectable with a helical gear limited slip when unlocked. Very nice to
have the LSD always there - transparent on pavement, great traction and
handling in the snow.
