I went to buy a D44 locker this morning from a guy new in box. Turned out it was a D30 locker so I can still use it. Just have some questions about driving habits? I've had locked rears but never locked the front. This is my dd so is there anything I should look out for? Also, at what stress point do you think I'd be in the range of snapping shafts?

You can't use a D44 Lock-Right in a Dana 30.

Wasn't going to. I've got a D44 rear and D30 front. And I was told it was a lock right for a 44 but its for a 30.

What size tires?

adamk

Currently 31s. I know I'm not in any range to now but for future reference

My 30 with an Aussie and stock shafts worked fine with 35s. If the lockright is used get a new spring kit cause they wear out pretty fast and will make it act a bit funny. Unless you get a lot of snow you won't notice it. In 2wd it may pop a bit on slow tight turns but that's about it.

I run a lock right in the front on 35s I have no driveabily issues at all

adamk

Perfect. And its brand new still in the box with all paperwork

What you pick it up for?
And just a heads up you have to remove the carrier and ring gear to install it. Kinda a pain but well worth it.

I want to lock my D30. Actually I have 31 but I will install 32 o 33 tires. Most of trials are mud or sand. I need to thinking in upgrade shafts or stocks are ok? I will regear to 4.10 (actually 3.07) so if I have to change, I prefer to do all in the same moment (carrier R&P and eventually shafts).

I know the 44 you have to. My 35 I didn't. I wasn't aware that you do in the 30 as well though. No biggie.

Ya cross pin has a roll pin instead of a bolt and it hits the ring gear even with 3:55's.

wear out fast? lockright is pretty much the most expensive lunchbox out there. how fast does it wear out?
I was interested in a lockright too because I thought it was the best drop-in

i havent noticed any wear in my lock right and i have had it installed for 2 years. still works like new. i noticed an increase in broken u-joints but it is still a worthwhile upgrade. i am running 33x10.5s with 297 joints.
