    If you wanted the same effect as a Detroit without spending a bunch you could just put a no-slip in. They work well if you don't have huge tires, 32s are well under what they can handle. No-slip is like $400 and you can install yourself in like 45mins

    Word.

    It takes all if a few minutes to get used to driving with a Detroit. Worst part is tight parking lots where you have to gas and turn hard but it's not a huge deal... usually that is the only time I remember it's there

    Same company, no-slip has slightly better road manners than the lock right locker

    The only thing I was thinking a full locking diff would be benificial is cause you are 2wd. But Zane would probably know more than I about gears. I researched what I wanted for the front, but I already had the factory locker in the rear. My friend loves his arb in his second gen and he was/is lsd. It works just fine. Not sure if it will be the same with yours, which is why I recommend the peeps that do gears. I had a great experience with ecgs.

    I will say that I don't like my Eaton tru track in snow or ice. If anything it has made my truck more sketchy in 2WD.

    Do you want full lockup, if not the true Trac is great. If you want full lockup I'd just do the lockright or the no-slip as they're cheaper and it sounds like you'll be pretty light duty anyway

    Yeah i think the truetrac fits me best. All my Offroad is just dirt roads. I think a arb or anything thays full locked would be over kill for me.
