I used LSD in the 60's an it wouldn't be smart to drive on the street, Better if taken LSD offroad around the campfire. "SORRY I HAD TO BE FUNNY"

I for one love chirping the tires. Scares the hell outta people when your pulling into a parking lot or gas station. They seem to think you're tearin ass when your just pulling in normally like everyone else. But then again, with a truck painted the same color as mine, you can really tell it's an attention loving beast!

i have a lockrite on my dd

i have driven 15000 miles since august, all with the locker, and thats 30 miles to work every day plus more for errands and drives to trails that are usually 1-2 hrs away, if not more.

theyre good in a dd. if you really plan to wheel with it, the small compromises and adjustments in your driving shouldnt be a big deal to you.

About $2500 including compressor, lockers, rings, pinions, master install kits and installed (taking the thirdmembers to the shop) and I never regret a penny of it.

I just installed a toyota E-locker (1998 4runner) into my 1987 4runner. It was easy! (although I seem to have gremlins in my wiring) It came with 4.30:1 gears, so I got a front 4.30:1 IFS 3rd member (1992 4runner) to match. $300 for all of it (wreck yard in El Paso), including wiring, etc. Best $300 and 10 hours ever spent on my truck.
