Centre Locking Diff

RE: Centre Locking Diff
ORIGINAL: hoberock
Thanks Mike, When I installed my ARBs, TT was not out. When I use my lockers, I usually just leave it on while I am off pavement. A few guys I wheel with have the older detroit locker and it is not pavement friendly. I haven't run across anyone with the TT, so I appreciate your comments on it. I'll probably never install a locker on my Disco though..
While we are on the subject, what size tires are you running and how much lift do you have? Any rubbing issues? I have a 2" lift with 31" tires and have some rubbing on the back. I am considering adding flares and doing some mild trimming.. Thoughts?

Yes the new Detroit, as of 4 years ago, was redesigned and is referred to as a silent Detroit now, and for 98% of the time they are just that. The TT is built pretty much out of the same housing as the Detroit so it is bullet prof strong and is a gear lock up, I really like it.
As for my truck which is a 99 D2, I have a 3" lift and am running 265's on her with no rubbing, even when fully stuffed in the rear wheel well they don't rub. You might consider throwing a set of one inch spacers under your coil to give you that little extra difference.
I live in Parker, south east of Denver.
Take care
Mike
