Going to get some lockers soon, true trac's are the ones on the list for now.

$600.00 each diff.
$1300.00 each diff with new carrier bearings and 3.09 gearing.(complete swap with diff core charge)

not really interested in the ARB more than twice the price and not twice the performance.

just wondering if the Power traxs are avaiable?

Yes they are. But why would you want tracks on your trk? Each to his own, but they are not for me.

Well the isuzu group I was with used them with good results.

The ARB's are nice but I am looking at $2700.00 front and rear including the Air compresser. with the truetrac or maybe traxs it is more like $1000.00 to $1500.00

just economics in the end.

Might be my misstake, I was talking to phil at great basin and I thought he said 3.09 maybe 3.89 or some thing else. he suggested while i was in the diff that changing the gears will help with the applacation of larger tires.

I am sure what ever He said was right, and what I was trieing to quote was wrong.

He was most likely talking about changing your current 3:54 gears to 4:11's.
By the way, if you call back, his name is Bill.
