Nice, better quality than the Loc-rite if you ask me, and cheaper too.

That looks like an 8.8 case. Be aware that the open 8.8 case is really weak. The Aussie will add a lot of traction but the 8.8 cases are much weaker than many other stock open diffs.

Nice, i think i remember you mentioning that on new years

Its a great locker, you'll love the new traction! :awesomework:

Yeah.. I know.. I went back and forth about it... but I don't have the budget for a Detroit right now, and I'm only on 34" LTBs...

I know Another guy with a BII that has a lockrite in his 8.8 and he pounds on his with 33x12.50s and hasn't had any issues, so I hope I also have good luck.

I figure when I'm ready to step up I'll probably run the super 8.8 kit and a full spool.

Nice :awesomework:


How much is a full spool for it? I wouldn't run nothing less then a full spool when you decide to upgrade again.

For that matter, can't you just weld up the existing limited slip?

If cheap is the goal then spool it or weld it. But a spooled rear turns much worse than a Detroit or Aussie(or similar).

Right now, it's a dual purpose rig. The older rear end was welded... I didn't much like it. I only plan on spooling it now when it goes to trailer queen status.

Full spools are about $170.

The ford trac lock carrier is even weaker than the open carrier, and it's design makes it a PITA to weld up.

I laugh when someone questions yer knowledge of ford stuff. Thats all...
