Rear Locker selection needed with 33 or 35 inch tires
 

Hi,

Locker question. What brand of rear locker will work with both 33 inch an/or
35 inch tires? 97TJ, 4.0, 410 or 411 ratio (see my other question)? I am
not running onboard air. This is a daily driver. Locker to go in the rear,
Ford 8.8 rear end.

Thanks,

paul

I'd go for a Detroit Locker which is fine for a daily driver, it's what
I'm running on my daily driver TJ with 35" tires and I love it.

Jerry, are you running a D44, 8.8, 9", or ? in the rear? D30 front? Locked
front?

Re: Rear Locker selection needed with 33 or 35 inch tires
 

why not try running with the limited slip on the rear, and put the locker in
the front? I think you'll find you'll be much happier. That limited slip,
if its working correctly, actually kicks in rather quickly, and is the next
best thing to a locker.

Hi robb6435,
I am running a D30 in the front. I am not sure it will hold up to the
stress of a locker in the front end if I am running 33" or 35" tires.
thanks,
paul

Hi Jerry,
Would a Detroit EZ locker work for me?
thanks,

Re: Rear Locker selection needed with 33 or 35 inch tires
 

An EZ-Locker would be extremely poorly behaved in the rear axle. If you
want an easily installed lunchbox locker like the EZ-Locker for the
rear, go with the Powertrax No-Slip locker instead which is FAR better
behaved in a rear axle. Its cost is similar and the installation
process is identical. :)
