Put a stronger center in - if you've busted a standard one you'll likely do another. There's a few options depending on whether you want a full locker or just the install & forget detroit/true-track style.

Also investigate getting the CDL operating too - maybe you have an early D2 & the bits are already fitted so you just need the linkage .

The CDL makes it easier on the driveline IMO.

what scouse said, and your wasting your time putting in a cross axle locker without first having the cdl working/installed.

I understand about March 2001 were the last to have the CDL in the transfer case but minus the linkage. You can check by looking on the top of the transfer case to see if there is a spigot with nothing on it just asking for a little lever and cable to get it working.

2001 - I'll put money on there being no internals.

1999 yes.
2000 maybe.
2001 buckleys.

Here some pic s of diff
