Had to get on it to clear an intersection. Had the drivetrain lightly loaded, feathered the clutch to full throttle and while still winding out in 1st, BANG. I know they pop occasionally, but this sounded and felt different. Now I'm spooled... I'm becoming somewhat disillusioned with the mighty Dana 44 and legendary strength of the Detroit Locker. I have to agree though, it's strength is a thing of the past. Oh well, Thank God for the guy who gave me the waggy 44 last weekend. I'll just pull the hypoids and reinstall my open carrier with Rubicon 4.10's.
For now the plan is rebuild the Detroit and put in the waggy 44.
Anybody know who has the best deal on Detroit replacement parts?
