Anyone install a Torsen or Truetrac front differential yet, or any actual lockers, such as ARB?

I've been thinking about doing a front locker, the limited slip is good but nothing like a true locker. I have had a few powerwagons over the years thy seemed to go better than my tremor but so far no complaints I really like this truck. It looks like we are going to get a few feet of snow where I hunt so I might get to try the chains out this weekend.Anyone install a Torsen or Truetrac front differential yet, or any actual lockers, such as ARB?

What about an OX locker for your dabs 60?
I have ARBs in my Jeep...drilling the pumpkin for the airline is hardest part of the job. Use a new sharp bit.Can anyone recommend a part # for a true locker for our Tremor front axle? I think I'd prefer an electronic one instead of air powered, but I do have the ARB compressor already on the truck.
Yes, the ARB lockers are proven and tough. I would utilize a braided stainless steel air line going to the pumpkin to hopefully keep the airline from getting damaged. Upside is simple air actuated mechanical design. Down side is install is more in depth and requires on-board air, regulator, and solenoid valves. Another proven locker is the Eaton E locker. Plus side is it uses 12v to actuate, so install is easy with an upfitter. Downside is the actuator may fail. OX locker is also damn near bulletproof and depending on how you actuate it, can be 100% mechanical (ie-easy to fix or jurry-rig if needed).i would go arb. I worked at an off-road shop through college where we installed both. They are both good lockers. I prefer arb because that’s what I used when I had selectable. View attachment 103427
Where is ur OBA located? You have to add the solenoid, reg, airline, switch wire to the compressor..I would go with ARB unless it's a PIA to install due to current location. If that's the case Eaton e locker.Which one would be better and more reliable, an OX locker with air or electric actuator, or an ARB air locker?
Yes, or as close to instant as possible, given the fact that all of them require a very small movement to align and engage the locking teeth together, even ARB.Eaton E locker seems like it will fit the bill the best even though I have on board air. Do they immediately lock (requiring no axle movement), like the ARB locker?
Well with that option you don’t need to worry about blowing an axle seal, which can and does happen when the arb has an air leak.Eaton E locker has now been added to my list.
Axles are vented. Shouldn’t be air tight.Well with that option you don’t need to worry about blowing an axle seal, which can and does happen when the arb has an air leak.
