With some 30,000 miles offroad and 115,000 miles I think its time to upgrade the LS which is probably due to be rebuilt.
It would seem a torsen T2R and a Detroit Locker are about the same price. I've never driven anything with an auto locker so I am worried about how it will affect handling and if it is going to engage when turning tight as possible on the trail. Because of this I am leaning tward the torsen but like the idea of the locker for all the crawling I do.
While I am at it I think I should put the torsen in the front end too. Why not?
I am wondering what I should expect to pay for installation? I am pretty handy but guessing it is probably beyond my ability.
Couple pics for you
