Manual lock in/out hubs and Lockright Lockers front and rear.


Lock Right in the front of one of those 4wd would be a bear, limited slip would be better. Detroit in the rear all the way, those are a drop in for the 14 bolt rear as long as its an open carrier. Basically indestructible.

They may have refined the Lock Rights in the last 20 years but I tore up two in a 12 bolt and gave up. Had one in the 44 in the front of my Jeep but that was basically a crawler.


They've updated something, i put two in an old 1952 B3PW Dodge around 8 years ago, iirc that's the Chrysler 9-1/4" rear and front, they run like butter in that old power wagon, lock and unlock on turning and straightening out, I feel nothing in the steering wheel or hear no knocking or popping, will admit, when I do have to lock in the 4WD, am in a shltpile of rough muddy/icy conditions, the big Michelin pizza cutters take it all with ease.

Trump Won!
