Okay have done all sorts of searching and have a question or two. I have already decided that trutac is gonna be best way for me to go in the rear. My first question is IF my ring gear is okay and not worn, is it a direct bolt on to the trutrac carrier? Also am running 31's now and for a while to come, will 28 SPline be ok? I read where Wildbill has been running this setup for years, correct me if I am wrong. Also is there anywhere that sells these cheaper than others, or is anyone out there have one lying around they need to get rid of? Thanks,
Mike G

Yes 28 spine axles should be fine unless you are very hard on your equipment.The truetrac will bolt right in just check your backlash before you take your old diff out.You will need a dial indicator to measure the backlash.Should be around 8 to 12 thousands.Make sure when you are done the reading is the same as it was before you took it apart.I like my truetracs.

Ok...a few other questions...what exactly is a "lunchbox" locker....Also what is a lock-right locker? Is it a spool, a true lock-up locker or a limited slip? Are they a cheaper version of what type?
