coinage is the issue...im trying to sell my 91 to fund this so i basically have to borrow the cash untill that thing sells

D44 Power-Lock, 3.93 and Up Complete

im liking that for the front...90-90% lockup...but that beeing said...$$$$ grrr....i need to sell that truck and get my toolbox paid off then i shall have some money to pay for tihs ****...it sucks spending money you dont have hahaha

The power lock is a good unit for the front axle. I'm prob buyin my Dads traclock for mine because he is upgrading to a detroit.

well i found out that its not the t-case popping out of gear...its the driver side hub...and it finally gave out lol...now in gear it jsut clicks and the all the power is given to that wheel being that there is no resistance so i have no front axle power at all...im wondering what its gonna look like in there...but it seems to be fine to drive on so thats what im gonna do until i do the R&P gears...which should be on their way again hahaha

Hmm, well tHat should be a easy fix. So you are pitting a locker in the rear axle that replaces the spider and side gears right? If you are, be prepared to grind a tooth Or two down on your ring gear. I just put a Aussie Locker in mine this weekend. Don't have to take much off the tooth, so it shouldn't be a strength issue.

yeah gonna product test a powertrax and see how long it takes me to break the fn thing..i only paid $130 for it so meh


hubs are easy im just wondering what happened to it though? everything was fine when i put er all together and it didnt start till that one day i had to drive home in front wheel drive...it started popping out and then id let off the throttle and itd go back in....but i racked my brain and could not figure out why or how my t-case would do that...so now that i know its a hub everything makes sense hahaha...just wondering how expensive the fix will be
