Does anyone have a detroit in there rear diff, what is your experiance? Can they effect the constant 4wd system at all when cdl is not engaged under normal driving on the road?

SupporterI have one in the back of my 101 - in day to day driving you will never know it is there and has no impact on the handling of the vehicle. The only time you will notice it is when doing tight U turns on hard surfaces or tight manoeuvring when you may hear some clicking as it unlocks and relocks.
I would recommend them as a cost effective alternative to an air locker.

SupporterI have just taken one out of my D1 and about to put it in my D2. As Garry said, you never know it is there during normal day to day driving. You will get the old school people saying they are noisy and clunky but the newer ones are quiet and smooth. The only way you know it's there is the car drives over thing a lot easier.
I'm putting the Detroit in my D2 as I already had it from my D1. It is recommended to put heavy duty axles in with them as they can put more strain on the axles.
If I was starting from scratch I would probably get the True Track as they are easier on the axles and drive train and the traction control makes them perform like a full locker.
Cheers, David.
