Re: Trac - Loc
Ya, I realize the risk. A lot of my friends run locked up D35's on large and
larger tires. General rule of thumb: Drive it like its a D35. Even with the low-output 4cyl, I'm sure it will eventually break.

Re: Trac - Loc
My thankfully long-gone D35c axle grenaded/self-destructed 6 weeks after
installing a locker. The axle had 33" tires on it during a slow-speed u-turn at a light-controlled intersection when it grenaded loudly enough to cause people a block away to look up to see what happened. I strongly recommend you not install a locker into a D35c, no matter how carefully you drive it. The trouble it causes is just not worth it. Jerry Carl wrote: > Ya, I realize the risk.

Re: Trac - Loc
There is a modification you can make to the Trak-Loc, to make the clutch
pack tighter. This is worth thinking of, if you want a tighter locking effect, without grenading your axle. I am sure that there is a web page somewhere, but you just buy another clutch pack, and use one of the clutches from it.
