I've been reading different threads on here about different recommendations for lockers/lsds and the whole deal. I'm getting some answers, but I'm still not sure what route to go. I'm going to be saving up for a traction enhancing setup for my 2wd Libby, and I'm still unsure whether to go with an aftermarket lsd (like the truetrac) or with a locker (like a lunchbox locker, or powertrax).
The Libby is my DD and will remain my DD for several years. I do some occasional light towing and zero off-roading (right now).
This is what I'm looking for/wanting:
>Excellent road manners (Doesn't mean I don't want any noises or changes in
handling)
>Best value for price
>Ease of install (Not a lot of "professional mechanics" in this area, so a
truetrac might get costly in that area)
>Good performance in rain/snow/off-road situations.
I'm sure I could add more, but that's it initally. I want to add something in the rear diff for peace of my in inclement weather, but also for the confidence in doing some light trail riding. I don't feel confident in the Libby right now. (I know, shoulda got a 4wd, but that wasn't in the price range at the time, or available anywhere close by).
Please make suggestions about whether to go with a Powertrax (no-slip or lockrite) or a TrueTrac, or another route.
But, please also explain your suggestion and why it would be best for my applications. That seems to be what I'm lacking as I read through these other threads.
