    NOTES:

    About the middle of July 2004, I got a used Lockrite for the D35c. I installed it and found out a couple of "issues" I would want everyone to be aware of. If you are running a "high" lift for OEM control arms... like over 3.5"... if you run a locker, it will cause a tendency for the inside rear tire to roll under the Jeep when turning under power. This is amplified when the sway bar is disco'd. Even more so on asphalt. I found this out when we went to the offroad competition in Ellijay on Aug 13th. It was spooky the first time, but very predictable after the first few times. I don't think this would be an issue with long arms or with 2-3" of lift.

    On about May of 2005, I pulled the Lockrite. It had entirely too much banging and popping for my taste. It never slipped... I just wasn't happy with it in my application. :-(
