1.50 60. No problems at all. Seems to be holding very well.

how does your guys tru trac drive on the street? we all kno they beasts when it comes to the track but how are they when i comes to daily driving? ive noticed mine is really sloppy and loose. theres alot of play between turning the ring gear and the axles turning. its like the ring gear/diff takes a good 1/4 turn before it locks up and starts turning the axles. also because of that i get a clunk everytime i press the throttle and everytime i take let off the throttle.....like its clunking everytime it locks and unlocks? im confused, dont kno if this is normal. how bout you guys? any input?

Your rear isn't set up right. I have to really try to listen when mine locks up and then can barely tell. It locks quickly, quietly and consistently.

A 1.29 60ft to date and the True-trac durability doesn't concern me one bit. I bought it through HPE and have never looked back. I did have G-Force set me a set of 3.90 gears and life is good!

what wouldnt be set up right to cause the clunks when locking and unlocking? is the the diff itself or the rear set up?

I don't know if the clunking you are hearing is from slack in the gears or the lock/unlock, but I don't hear any clunk at all. I do know that the lockers are known for that feel/sound, but I never had to experience that myself except in my old Fords with the original lockers.
