For a XJ with a Dana 35.

What are you running and where did you get it from?

Lockrite in front  Dana 60......... tight turns not a prob as hydro steered now :icon_twisted:

I replaced axles with detroits front and rear, much prefer the ARBs as you can leave them off, and switch them on when needed

Or you'll get through/up/back out without help/big revs/numerous attempts...

Plus you can tackle stuff and a slower pace and revs...less damage to truck/contents/terrain...

Depends on driving style, if you like nailing it then lockers could cause knock on problems as of course more stress on UJ's etc...

Detroit rear, Truetrac front. Would go proper full locker in the front, probably ARB if re-doing it.
