Re: LSD or other Traction device for WJ with only quadratrac??????
I was essintial told by extreme Gear (A sacramento 4wd shop) that this
would not be possible due to the c-clips in the Dana 44 on the WJ...however based on Jerry's posting it looks like it won't fit in there anyhow. What other options do I have for a LSD (ARBs are to much for my uses, and electrac doesn't look like it will fit...auto lockers don't work for me in the snow...am i just out of luck!) Thanks for any and all advice! Esteban BTW... I was toying with the idea of finding some varilock axles...but apperently it is more then just an axle swap to be add qudradrive to a quadratrac transfer case...Thanks in advance.
