Default Re: New front locker with 4.88's

The 4.10s can be sold to someone wanting to upgrade their 08+ model that has 3.73s

Can you get an extra set of the rear control arms fabbed up? I'd be interested if the price is right or maybe we can work out a deal on a custom steering link stabilization that I am working on. Surely you have seen the issues with it flexing now that you have the other steering parts under control...

Looks like you are doing it right. I agree those drop brackets suk. I have 1" coil spacers on my rear and True Tech control arms. They are not adjustable but I have a custom length set. I have all te Cognito gear up front as well and using their uniball UCAs.

Make sure they leave extra internal slack in the front locker wiring or the wires will break when the diff shifts internally - as mine did.

Make sure and change fluid at 500 miles regardless of what installer tells you. After new gears and locker install, mine was full of small metal particles. Installer said I didnt need to change fluid until 50K because I was running full syn fluid but they were full of it!!! Lots of metal came pouring out...

Did you see my thread on HXC about how to wire the front locker in with the rear so they both get deactivated when TC module senses over 20 MPH? I love this mod so dealer or other unknowing person driving my rig does not hit locker button to engage while driving down highway or similar.
