Locking diff.

(1/3) > >>

whipper.snapper:
So I want to get a locking rear diff for my 87 Chevy v10, I’ve read into it a little bit and I think a Eaton E-Locker is a good example of the best fit for me. I want it to be selectable, and I want it to be a full lock as opposed to limited slip. But they are quite pricy.

Do y’all have any suggestions of certain products or routes I can get this done?

Thanks in advance fellas!

You have a V10 which is 4x4. Limited Slip would be my choice. Why would you prefer a locker over LSD?

Shifty:
Great for drag racing, maybe mud-boggin'.....

A locker is better IMO because you get the best of both worlds, it’s a fully locked diff when you need it to be (I.e stuck off-roading, pulling a boat out of the water, or slick roads maybe) and then a fully open diff when you are doing your regular road driving.

My truck has a fully lock diff (posi-traction) and I like it. Used to haul a boat and I had no problem at boat ramps.
