I'm looking for any experience with the Detroit EZ Locker. It is not a 'limited' slip and I'm not 100% sure I understand the Detroit definition difference... lots of D's here.

So I'm open now, and been doing some camping in remote areas. Several times the roads are rough and I could've used a good 'differential' lockup to help.
The Detroit EZ Locker is supposed to be a 'drop in' using all the 8.8 set (I don't think I'd do the install anyway, old) and Detroit has a good name.

This seems like a really "positive/complete" limited slip (overly aggressive?)...

Any thoughts on how this might work (3.73 rear end, slightly 2.65/75s XLT Mich)
Thanks.

i run the richmond gear powertraxx lock right. same concept. works great if ya ask me. it is a little aggressive, you will spin your inside tire when cornering around town. actually i should say slip, especially on gravel.

off the road, it tends to get you further in 2wd than you normally would.

 

Thanks, I'll look into it. I don't want a too aggressive setup as I do mostly street or highway driving. Just need the added boost in the back roads. Thanks.

 

you aggressive on the throttle when turning around town?

 

Not with gas prices the way they are here in So.Cal. ;^)

 

you should be fine. my 35"s if i nail it will make my lockright ratchet, if i half heartedly use the throttle during a turn i can feel it slip the tire a little. now if your really easy on it you dont feel it slipping.

so your situation its probably a decent low price mod for you.

 

Thanks. That is exactly what I'm looking for and at about $290 or so for the Detroit EZ it seems low cost enough.
