    hmmm I was told I would only have a restricted turning radius, not no turning radius.

    I don't want to lock the 35, so I was really hoping an aussie would work out in the front.

    Does anyone actually run a lunch box in the front here, on the club?

    There are times that the Detroit hinders progress due to inability to steer, but overall, I can wheel without hydro. Doesn't an Aussie locker still partially disengage when turning? You are making it sound like an Aussie locker is like a welded front. I have had a welded front and I have had a Detroit, and they are nothing alike.

    I did once upon a time in the bronco... never noticed a bad turning radius because it broke shafts too fast in the ttb. But I wouldn't worry about loosing some radius on jeep... you shouldn't have any issues in 2wd anyways. i am going full detroit in mine but would do lunch box if i was worried about $

    I know they disengage, so I don't think it kills my radius... but I do think it will hurt.

    I guess its livable...

    It is number two to do on the list I guess. At only 260, I can't complain.

    Anybody ever install one before?

    it won't hurt anything in 2wd. You will learn how to make it work for you in 4wd. It's a locker. It locks under power and unlocks when not under power (more or less). It will improve your jeep's capability more than anything else. Do it!

    nah. lots of people do it. you're more likely to break a shaft but that's wheeling. you will have a hard time turning sometimes but you'll deal with it. does yours have a two piece shaft up front?... i dont know, one of the former collins boys came chime in and tell you about that.

    I am assuming you haven't wheeled with the lot of us, and you haven't wheeled clayton. I would make sure you have spares.


    I am sure Creighton would be more than happy to school you on the finer points of 'finessing' obstacles.
