    Good morning gents! Doing some catching up in here :pccoffee:

    Broke down and ordered a pair of these yesterday.. Will probably keep my stockers and use them to convert the prerunner to the 12-15 front end. Also changed all the idler bearings out on my s/c and made a custom spacer to align the drive belt better with my mustang s/c tensioner.

    How much consideration have you given this? I may know someone with a truetrac in 488.

    I have strongly considered the swap, but i think id be on the losing end for a straight trade.. still trying to decide if i want to regear again or just live with what ive got..

    The diff was leaking a little because the bolts started backing out after i tightened them down initially. I retorqued them and put some thread locker on em and its been good ever since. It was just an installation mistake on my part.

    Gotcha, thought you were having issues with ARB. Let me know if you have interest in swap for true trac.

    Ohhh gotcha, yeah im having issues with the ARB. I think my solenoid is bad or something. It leaks out of the vent for that. I did have the internal locker seal replaced about 6months ago. But when it was leaking then, it leaked out of the diff breather. This is a problem elsewhere i believe. Will keep you posted on the trutrac swap, but i think im leaning towards keeping what ive got since im likely gonna supercharge it in the future.. 5.29s would be a bit much with 33s i think
