Dana 50 lockers

So who wants to know which lockers for their 99-01 SD with the dana 50????
After many hours of research I think I have some answers.

!st the lockright 2510 is the one that will work I'm told from a guy who sells em to SD owners and never got one back He says all D50's are the same.
2nd Of course the ARBD50.
And if you really want to you can find a detroit locker for it also.
Ask me Where........email

Just email me and I will be happy to answer your concerns..
I've made up my mind I'm going with the detroit soft locker in the rear and the lockright in the front......Finally

And did you know that if you have posi in the rear you can get a no slip locker from the lockright company that will just drop in to the posi case.....10.5 sterling..

Good locking


By the way powertrax who makes the lockright. well richmond now. doesn't even know that the 2510 will fit the newer D50's

ARB makes one, but....BE CAREFUL!

If you've ever had the diff apart you can see that the interenals are basically a Dana 44 (including inner splines!)

If you're hitting the mud or rocks, I'd stay with a limited slip (if they make one yet)

For sand or snow, you should be ok with a locker (ARB).

I have come to the same conclusion for front lockers. After DAYS of research and asking questions the D50 has several options, you just got to ask for the right application.

Let us know how it goes.

Do you mean the factory LS? How much? Can I change ratio (4x2)?

Change ratio... ie: 3.73 to 4.10. I don't think it would matter.

Only in your dreams and mine.
The difference between a locked and unlocked truck!
one's a truck and ones a tractor
one you can get yer keys out of the ignition, the other you wish you could
