    hey guys hope all is well.. anyhow looking for some words of wisdom from the gurus or anyone running this No-slip System..

    the initiall first run after the install felt good real easy and very straight foward took me around 3 hours and half to finish >>! both tires at the same time... nice powerbrake burnout test two rubber marks.. also some minor clunks here and there but nothing bad..

    Second run after parked later that night the only one tire seemed to have traction.. and there was no clunk nor engagement of th locker around corners even powerbraking only one tire mark...rode all night like that no clunking and no traccion in one wheel specifically the passenger side

    NExt morning and 50 miles later backing up on to park heard aloud clunk and obvious engagement scared the shit out of me.. so did a quick test right there at the parking and notice the two tire marks wohoo .!
    rode all morning even went to the a little sand off roading nothing much.. locker worked 100% felt good rode it like that the whole day no problms...

    Today went to get some breakfast and same story only one tire traccion .. kinda worried yeah maybe someone running this can comment .. maybe is the break in period.. but yeah... ok thanks..

    Sounds to me like the preload and/or backlash is wrong for your application. Not sure if you can adjust it on that model. I'm also not 100% sure...
