Tru trac

Tru trak if you can afford it. However the new and improved spider gears have much better clutch packs than OEM. That's what I am currently running and they are working great.

My old spiders could not hold up to the horsepower. I blew up three spiders.

anyone know where to get a drop in set up with bearings on and all.... or where to get the new and improved spider gears... i can just put new gears in my case and bolt it back in rite?

Check out Yukon gears. I believe that is there name. They sell complete kits.

Anyone know the differences in a detroit tru tac and an eaton true trac? Both worm gears i think but didnt know it one was better...

I think randys has the eaton true track

Eaton bought detroit so they are both exact same

Tru-trac or an ARB locker would be the only 2 options I'd suggest you consider. I went with ARB front and rear.

Cool.. thanks guys... just found that out today that there the same..

Hopefully the quality didn't go down on the detroit now that eaton owns them. We never had any luck running eaton lockers or tru tracs around here.

Damn I had 290k on my original e99 rear end and running 36's and couldn't destroy it. Sled pullin,sand dunes,mud boggin,and lots of burnouts. Always turned posi also.
