Powertrax Locker
Powertrax
The Powertrax locker operates smoothly like a limited-slip differential, but still offers the traction of a locking differential. Unique gear and spring design reduces backlash, driveline windup, and ratcheting noises. This axle locker installs easily without the need for ring and pinion setup. Powertrax makes a variety of lockers to fit Dana 30, Dana 35, Dana 44, Dana 60, and Ford 8.8 axles.

This locker comes with great instructions and is very easy to install. It does everything you'd expect from a top quality locker and more. It is very quiet with minimal clicking and other noises you'd expect from a locker. My only complaint is that the Richmond Gear/Powertrax customer service is terrible. I emailed them 2 weeks ago with install questions and still haven't heard back from them. Still a great inexpensive locker.

Just installed these in the front and rear. They have taken me places I have not been able to go before. They are a great option for the price. If you are like me and have to save a while before you get the nice 44's with arb lockers and all the bells and whistles. These have made alot of the same trails i did without them....effortless!!!! |

I just had a Powertrax installed last week with 3:73 gears. I have an 01 TJ with auto trans. Went went to Box Canyon today. Not a terribly tough trail but there are a few spots that are technical. I went up stuff today I wouldn't have dared try before. I left the front end open as I don't want any busted axles. I look forward to Jeepers Jamboree on the Rubicon this coming summer. |

Powertrax No-Slip in rear axle. |

I've got a No-Slip in my rear axle, despite many people saying that "lunchbox" lockers are bad in the rear. It is very well behaved on the road. Every now and then it may click, but its never violent, or loud. You'll learn to drive with it, after a few days its like it's not even there. Off-road its AWESOME. Locks up and never lets down. Have made it thru stuff that before would not have been possible with the stock limited slip. |

Will probably save you from having to winch out your rig. |

I've had the locker on the rear of my XJ Cherokee for 3 years now. I'm mostly happy with it. Offroading (light to moderate that I do), it's great! On very loose surfaces like sand, though, it pushes the front straight even with the steering wheel turned, because there is not enough lateral traction on the front tires to unlock the rear differential. On the street there is a small amount of "clunking" and jerkiness that was not there with the stock "open" differential. The bottom line is I know I drove right out of mud that would have bogged us without the locking diff. |
