No slip

lock rite

And honstly when i first got my locker I noticed the clicking and slow speeds but now I dont even notice it. So is a little better on road manners worth $100? Its up to you, but knowing what I know now I still would go with the lock rite.

so my sub came yesterday, and my amp is somewhere? I just contacted the ebay store because my tracking number wasn't working and they said either fedex lost or damaged my package.... and they are out of stock of the amp I want... great. So I guess I have to wait to hear my sub until they either find my package or get some more amps in stock, so for now I guess I just have to look at my sub...

I aquired my skid plates off a Blazer that was traded in to the dealership I wroked for in early 1999. You may want to check with junk yards, especially bigger ones that may have been in the Cash for Clunkers program from last summer. If not try LMC Truck.

Also if you do plan on getting the detroit that its a pain to take the carrier out. I would seirously consider one of the powertrax lockers. Took me 2hrs to to install mine and that was from the time the garage door closed, to when i drove out and did a burnout to make sure it worked.
Yeah the Powertrax ones install directly in place of the spider gears so you do not need to pull the gears and relash them.
