OK I think that Eaton is the way to go because I do drive it everyday and I dont what to have the locker chirpping the tires every time I take a corner. Now where is the best place to get one??? thanks for the awnsers

the detroit don't chirp tires in corners snakeeater has one and i've never heard it chirp around corners but it locks up tight when he needs it. i've got one going in myself. the eaton might be rebuildable but the detroit don't need rebuilt. just my $.02

the detroit c-locker is designed to disengage around turns and such. unless of course you hammer it in the turn and break loose then it will lock up again.
