What is the difference between a Detroit Locking Rear and a Traction Lock rear? I'm looking to upgrade my 28 Spline Ford 8" Rear
Check the price on a mini spool,you get what you pay for.Its locks both axles together and isnt forgiving on turns.You ride a quad or a atc????same idea.Riggs said:Actually how good are mini spools?
66StangFastback said:You dont want a locking differential. You wont be able to take corners very well with one. It wont allow the outside tire to spin faster, to get the car around in a turn.
66StangFastback said:I dont know anything about detroit lockers, but thats a limited slip which you just described. A limited slip is ideal for street driving. You dont want a locking differential though, because it won't do what you just described, and will make it hard to take turns. If the detroit locker is a limited slip then thats what he wants. I just took locker being in it to mean it was a locking differential, rather than a limited slip.
Riggs said:I found a Powertrax Lockright rear 28 spline for $256 that sounds like the way to go, no clutches but great all together rear.
