Dana 30 Spartan Locker problems?!?HELP!
So I just installed my spartan locker in my D30 on my 97 XJ. as soon as I drove off to test drive, I had SEVERE steering issues!!! My steering was being thrown from side to side and it was like I had no power steering. I HAVE ZERO ISSUES with my steering components. this only started AFTER I installed the spartan locker. HELP!!!:icon_eek::icon_eek::help::help::help::help ::help:

The tolerance=the gap between the 2 halves of the locker, if the gap is to big or to small it can cause the locker to misbehave.

I'm not sure about the spartan honestly, but the aussie is .145-.170

When you installed it did u pull the thrust washer out or leave them? Go pick up a mic, pop the cover and get a good measurement between the two. Then in the book it came with should be a spec page with the range. |

I'm thinking that because I did remove the thrust washers, this might be the problem.
