Okay ,so the locker question comes up periodically. Its been long enough since some of you have added lockers to your JL Sports. Please share your real experiences and opinions on how they performed since install.

Thanks

Added the torq locker to mine. Works awesome. Only drawback is i notice it on tight turns. Makes like a vibration. Other than that its great. Elocker or arb next for the rear to get rid of my popping lsd

“Popping” ?? Is it all the time, or at low speeds? That might be what my Sahara was doing, and I thought it was rear driveshaft not being perfectly straight from being on 3.5 “ lift without rear upper adj. arms to adjust pinion.

I should reword that to knocking but that word eluded me at the time haha. I notice it pretty much everytime i let off the gas. More so when im on a down hill. Sometimes its subtle other times its more noticable. Im not entirely sure its from the diff but, i cant see it coming from anywhere else. I need to jack it up and spin the tires but its hot and im lazy. Theres also a very faint whine from the back as i decelerate. All my bearings and seals are brand new so i dunno.
