3k for the 3rd!? What's in it? 10"?
Granted I have a friend who runs a gear shop but mines 4:88 motive gears, polished, arp bolts, Yukon grizzly locker, 35 spline, big bearing, Yukon case, 1350 yoke.... it was like 1100$

 

Mine came factory with the gear sensor stuff in the tcase.... maybe get one from an 09 manual?? I have zero abs stuff in my truck and my speedo works great

 

This is what I am referring to. You can get very high quality Strange parts for a great price. Yes Currie makes great parts but they are very expensive for the Currie name...

 

pretty much the same build. I was a Yukon dealer at the time so it wasnt really $3k but to have mine built would be like $3k plus

basically I called Yukon and told them build the nicest most bullet proof 9" 35 spline third you can. Spare no expense. If theres a place to add beef, add it. Ended up with a 3rd that has literally had zero issues. Well worth it IMO

 

Yea true but currie kinda is the only option besides rcv for getting custom length axle shafts( yea I know Yukon makes some too) currie shafts really arnt that expensive. But yea a 9" 3rd can get carried away quick

 

Lol yea that's what I told my buddy that built mine! Normal cost was in the 3k range lol... pays to have friends

I've beaten the piss out of mine regularly with zero issues

 

Strange case, Detroit locker, solid spacer, 35 spline and 1350 yoke $1550 shipped. Ordered my axles with my housing from camburg and they were from speedway FYI. But full float for the bro hoes of course. Don't you already have a 9"?

 

How is the Detroit working for you?

 

Love it. I mean it's noisy as fuck, but it's nice to be able to still drive it on the street without smoking tires. Biggest downside is how it loads/unloads on the freeway but I don't give a fuck cause it's not the daily

 

Yea I got a 9", fullfloat and all that cool stuff, same thing about the locker it's noisy and sometimes makes you look like a tard if you goose it to hard in the parking lot. Between shock noise, tire noise, drivetrain noise, exhaust.... brake noise, pivots.... if venture to say most people think I'm drivin around a big POS...... but hey it's my pos lol

 

Having seen the Detroit and Yukon locker next to each other... literally almost exactly the same. The Yukon is a lil cheaper I think in price. And the customer service and turnaround for parts and warranty is much quicker than the Detroit folks in my experience

 

Still trying to figure out how to get rid of bypasses clicking. That shit by far is the most annoying

 

I heard similar reviews on their air locker. Even that many internal parts are made at the same place...

 

lol

 

haha When @TRON_ got in at the dune in Moab I had this waiting for him.

 

Yep headsets are amazing! You will never get rid of the clicking.

 

Rough idea on how much it would cost to cage my double cab?
