I put Detroit Soft lockers on my CJ-7 in the front and rear. I performed the install with a buddy which neither of us ever installed one before. The directions suck, but thank god for the internet. The do use a 4 oz. friction additive that can be run with your normal weight lube. It's optional, but I run it.
I must say the lockers perform great offroad, constantly doing there job without complaining. I run a twin stick on my Dana 300 so the Detroits work great in my application. On the road there are times when the rear locker will let you know it's there so to speak, but usually just around really sharp turns under power. I like the fact that Detroits have been around forever and had time to get the kinks out. If you drive more offroad than on road these are your lockers. I only took a point away because they say they could be ruined if a shaft would break. |

I've had the locker for about a month now and have used it for daily driving and offroad and have been very pleased with it in all areas. I was a little concerned at first with how it was going to act on pavement but going from a detroit tru-trac to a full locker I was surprised that there wasn't that much of a difference. Great economical and strong locker for the money. |
