Upgraded to the Detroit TruTrac carrier unit. I must say that this is a nice heavy duty piece. Unit has no clutches to slip, acts like an open carrier until torque is sensed then lock both wheels.

Here are some pics of it installed and the new axles. The last picture is of the old carrier with the part of old axle stuck in it. The carrier is ruined.

Not exactly true. I have a TrueTrac in the front of my 4WD Bronco.
There will be a 3:1 ratio of wheel speed bias, which makes it smoother than a real auto locker.
The tire with less traction will spin 3X faster than the tire with traction.

My ARB (rear 9") will run open, until I comand it to lock, then it's a spool :D
