Lookin for a Locker for a D60 Frnt What are you guys Running?
Post Pics and or Part#'s PLease o and where did u get it.
Hows it Performing? do u like the Selectible or Fulltime?
Dailey Driver or Toy.
Thanx:popcorn::popcorn:
 
been covered over 12 dozen times. and not to long ago there was 2 -3 threads with great info.

search locker and 60 should pop up.

my self i like options. so i got arb units front and rear. not in yet tho. long story.
 
lockright locker, cheap, easy to install, lasted 3years so far, wheel about 1x a month, not a extremely heavy foot but on 40" pitbulls, i drive it on the street plenty. I'd recommend it.
 
Lockright for like 6 years now. Have broken a few stubs and inner and its still working great with a 454 and heavy 43s
 
I like true locker like my Detroit. It has 4 wheel traction all the time, and still lets you turn when you need to. If you have a selectable, when it's locked, it's like a spool. Yeah you can unlock it, but I prefer to be able to turn my steering wheel easier offroad without sacrificing my traction at the same time. A detroit is the best of both worlds. Now if they ever made a selectable locker, (not a selectable spool like all the current selectables), that would be sweet. But I just don't think there is enough room in any standard diff to have both reliably.
 
I like my detroit (no spin). I have it in a 74 k20 with tons. Its a dd and a toy. I run 42 tsl for the trail. My locker has seen the most time on 39.5 bias tsl's though. I installed it about 5 years ago and couldn't be happier. Selectable are spools when locked and I didn't want that. My 30 spline stubs and hubs are holding up to it so far on the 42's. I have drove the truck a few times on front wheel drive only, and its a little jerky, but works in a pinch.
 
I have a Lockrite in my 44 now and Love it. But was just Curious about what others are using. ANyone using Grizzly from Yukon???

Click to expand...

I'm running the elocker in the front, but I think I'd go for the arb if I did it again. The elocker sometimes won't disengage without backing up a tad if there is strain on the drivetrain. It drive perfect in the snow though (as long as it's unlocked) ;)
 
I have installed two grizzlies, they work and hold up just fine, they are the loudest and wort behaved it seems. They work just fine though
 
I just installed the lockrite... Pretty happy overall with, it but I really don't have a lot of time on it yet
