i ran an e-z locker for years.
got it used in 2000 or so and finally blew it up last year.
it survived 2 rear axles, 1 ring and pinion, 3 front axles and 4 birfs before it died. :gap:
if you put it in the rear it will bang and clunk a lot, but you get used to it.
dont think you blew up your rear end the first time it unloads. :laugh:

that is why i would be getting the detroit tru-trac up front cause it just converts the front to basically a limited slip

I had a True trac when the IFS was up front. It works O.K. for most stuff & good in the snow. You will have trouble on some of the trails we run that you would not have with a real locker. I had a Lockright in the front after that, worked well for me with smaller tires. For anything over 33" tires I would go with a Detroit, the manners are basically the same as the Lockright on the street. :twocents:
