im thinking of getting a 9" very shortly. it is my daily driver and i dont want a posi cause i dont wanna worry about it breaking, and i dont want a spool cause its still a daily driver. im not sure if i want a locker because i have to drive in the rain sometimes and i heard the locking and unlocking can cause spin pretty bad

i think a soft locker might be want im looking for. anyone have one? input on it? where do you get them and what is the ballpark price? also who makes them?

thanks

from what i hear when a soft locker engages and disengages it isnt as noisy or as rough as a regular locker

Try the powertrax its what I put in my truck(saw it put in an old muscle car on hptv). They are easy as hell to install plus they still differentiate until you put the torque down in a turn. They stay locked while your running strait down the road. Go to powertrax.com and watch the video it'll make you cry if you have an f-body. They are suppose to be stonger than your axles so you don't have to worry about breaking it. Hardly hear mine when it disengages. No problems driving in the rain.I got mine for a little under 400 bucks...Zed

My Locker has a very stiff spring. Its not to bad usually but if I go from coast to drive while in a slow tight turn it will lock and unlock and it sounds like someone is beating on my rearend with a sledge hammer! If you dont want that then get a soft one.

I have heard good stuff about the Tru Trac as mentioned earlier. I wish I had seen that before I built my Nine inch. When I need to change ratios later you can bet I will be going with the Tru Trac!
