Nice Freegdr, that's a great deal/find. I was keeping an eye on you for the endurance of that D35 you run with the 38's. If one listened to the general rabble the D35 couldn't haul groceries from the mall. Seeing the terrain you run, how did you make it survive? I have a non c clip type also, any tips? Should probably keep yours for a backup. I like the Powertrax, very friendly manners, for offroad and daily driver dual duty.

Power trax no slip or a Aussie for a lunch box. Detroit for a full carrier type locker and ARB for a selectable.

Zip is an air locker sold by Randy's R & R, not sure but I don't think they make one for the C/8.25.

I have Aussie in my XJ and PowerTrax NoSlip on my 04 Durango and let me tell you that the PowerTrax is super quiet. Regular awd I dont even feel it was there only in the Low range on the sharp turn when wheeling I felt the rear tire skid little bit. I am realy happy with it.

Too bad you don't live near Jersey. I'm going to OK4wd today for truckfest. While I'm there I'm going to see if someone wants the Powertrax No-Slip I took out of my 8.25 - 29. It never worked in my rear, it was worse than the open rear. Far worse. Richmond Gear was very unhelpful, and rude. The guys here said I broke a tab on installation. It came out unbroken or damaged. First $100 takes it. If not it is going to the scrap pile. Mine is a DD also, I put in a LSD. Nice find on the rear. Now you need a D30 with the same gearing.
