Detroit locker thoughts...

so im daydreaming more than anything because the likelyhood of getting a locker is low right now, but i figure i can talk through it anyway. cost IS a factor, and detroit seems to be about half the cost of ARB, if not more once you factor in the on board air. i know the detroit is automatic and that would have some disadvantages in high traction situations.

a few questions for my window shopping... what size is my axle? i have a 2007 access cab sr5.

im looking at moving up from 265/75/16 to 255/85/16 - will this put too much strain on the rear end?

THanks!

 

You have the toyota 8.4 diff i believe.

 

you have the 8.4, although the ring gear is still actually 8 inches it just has way more support making it stronger then the elocker third. i ran 255/85/16's for 2 years and never broke a thing and now im running 315/75/16's and im still fine after a year of wheeling.
