Default G 80 Questions

Whats the deal with the Eaton, I thought it was some badass electronic locker? I've been pondering a gear change and was hoping not to have change this at the same time.

If you are talking about the g80 it is neither badass or electronic. It is adiquate in most stock cases but when you put any real HP tp it it will eat itself. If you are referring to the eation posi unit and not the G80 it is a good piece but not electronic it is clutch operated. You can change gears without changing your g80 but I would recomend changing it while you are there if you can afford it.

I got the electronic locker in my 06, so is this good or bad? I thought it was the G 80, maybe E 80?

If an e-locker is an option on a stock vehicle, let's see the RPO code.
