Detroit TrueTrac LSD Installation Advice
Hey All,
I am looking into buying a Detroit TrueTrac LSD for my Dana 30. I plan on installing it myself.. is this hard to do? Are special tools required? I haven't found too much info on this, so any advice or experience would be appreciated. Thanks -Brent Bogrees '89 Jeep Wrangler YJ 2.5L TBI – 33x10.5 BFG MT's '94 Jeep Cherokee Sport 4.0L – 31x10.5 BFG AT's http://www.chrr.ohio-state.edu/~bogrees/html/Jeep.html |

Go with the "lunch box" lockers, they slip in place of your
spiders, so you won't need to buy the thousands of dollars worth of micrometers to correctly shim the new carrier. http://www.off-road.com/jeep/reviews/powertrax/ http://www.4x4rockshop.com/Scripts/p...idproduct=2063 God Bless America, ßill O|||||||O mailto:-------------------- http://www.----------.com/ Brent Bogrees wrote: > > Hey All, > > I am looking into buying a Detroit TrueTrac LSD for my Dana 30.

Re: Detroit TrueTrac LSD Installation Advice
Thanks for the advice Bill. I think I might go with the Powertrax
No-Slip per your suggestion. It seems to be the best "lunch box" locker out there. I like that I can install it myself.. want to keep my Jeep Project 100% me. -Brent '89 Jeep Wrangler YJ 2.5L TBI – 33x10.5 BFG MT's '94 Jeep Cherokee Sport 4.0L – 31x10.5 BFG AT's http://www.chrr.ohio-state.edu/~bogrees/html/Jeep.html L.W.(ßill) ------ III <----------@cox.net> wrote in message news:<3FB00510.871A5A71@cox.net>... > Go with the "lunch box" lockers, they slip in place of your > spiders, so you won't need to buy the thousands of dollars worth of > micrometers to correctly shim the new carrier. > http://www.off-road.com/jeep/reviews/powertrax/ > http://www.4x4rockshop.com/Scripts/p...idproduct=2063 > God Bless America, ßill O|||||||O > mailto:-------------------- http://www.----------.com/ > |
