    I've got the powertrax no-slip locker. It works fantastic and its simple. I've put roughly 60k on mine and a boat load of wheeling trips. If you install it right you'll never really notice its there until you need it. If you decide to go with it I bought mine through rocky-road.com

    http://www.rocky-road.com/noslip.html Part #92-2080-3002

    I think he was justa little eery of the new engine and transmission in it, wanted to make sure they get the bugs out in 2016. But I will suggest that to him, we might be making a visit to see you.

    Count my dad in most likely and maybe James.



    Do it!!! We'll get Aron to drive over too.

    Haha yeah it makes it a little easier getting through some spots. I got it for a steal in a group buy, but even for the price it is normally, its less than half the price of an ARB locker plus you don't need any switches or air compressors for it.

    If your asking if the computer knows about it to activate? Then no it doesn't, its purely mechanical, it locks when you put engine power to it and unlocks when your coasting. One of the nicest things about it is that your don't have to reset your backlash or pinion depth and all that hard math stuff.

    I was asking, like, since I have the "limited-slip" the computer would not activate the limitedslip.....because there woukd be no slip....due to the rear being mechanically locked, right?
    My limited slip is brake assisted, so when there is slip, it applies the brakes to the rear.

    I woukdn't want the system applying brakes, when there is no longer a need to.


    I confused myself on the previous post.
