Not So Pro 3

That sounds like the ticket !!!!

It is. I would lean cable or electric vs air because of potential leaks. Sometimes inside the housing. The ox trax are big cable operated lockers with a shift fork built into the cover. Pretty slick.

4 feet.....4 FEET!!! Complete dumb ass

My first car was a 75 Duster with a slant. When the first rear end shelled out we scrounged one up from a junk yard. It had a half ass busted limited slip that chirped the tire when backing up and made the car even slower than before.

Good time.

Wayne your bringing back old memories. I too had an old 225 slant in a 61 Valiant with a 4barrel, and crane cam. Put the 3 speed on the floor and fuzzy furr dash. Those were simpilar times. That old car got beat but that slant 6 held together. Thanks for the memory.

Guys with 44" tires loved truetrack dana 70 front and back. Like wheeling with dog! 4x4 with thought lol. They go like wow in the mud. Ask me how I know. This guy never ran anything bigger than a 12bolt with 36" tires and no power adders 400-450 hp 5.7 sbc. Nothing wild but broke eleven back rears and three fronts in two years. It was weekend truck mostly, tow boats or haul scrap.

Best bet for the street and off road overall is the Eaton truetrack No springs in the diff is my choice for big power. Less failures overall with less parts. You can take out a lot of heat prone failures, fact. Less is more in there.

Twelve springs is never good imo.

A Detroit Trutrac is an all gear limited slip. No springs, clutches ect. It like a torsen that the real hummers have and some of the older ford rangers with the off-road package. Torsen diffs were also used in awd Audi v8 cars. Seamless. No chattering, no clutch wear. Excellent street or moderate off road diff if you don't run huge tires and power. Downside is they need some resistance to start the torque transfer to the tracton wheel. So, hang a tire in the air off road and it won't pull you unless you apply a litte break pressure. Similar to a any clutch type limited slip.

Appears from you building them in your teens? I smoked one rear in my life after stuffing a built 350 into a Chevy monza without upgrading the rear.

I use the pro knee ap16 knee pads. Very expensive but we spend a lot of time crawling around on concrete floors laying out building partitions.

Yep. Lock rites act like any automatic locker with the random pops and bangs and tail wiggles as they lock and unlock in curves and such. That's why I preferred the spool in my application. Now id go selectable locker hands down over anything else. Many modern trucks have them as an option. Ford 150's, some rams like the power wagon, jeep Wrangler Rubicon, trd Toyota Tacoma to name some.

And a 50 cal at that with stacked steel plates. Total idiot!!

Yep. More fodder for the anti gun crowd.

I had three of the monza shatboxes. A 4 cyl stick, 196 v6 auto and a factory 305 / turbo 350 auto car. That one got the 350 and built trans. They are fricken garbage cars.
