lmk or post it up when you get it installed.

i heard good things about os giken from gadget. ill wait for a little while more and extend my xr's life

ive read in another forum that we might have to change the entire rear end and that the auto lsd light will be on all the time. abs malfunction and such will be encountered. :frown:

Just curious (since I have an 09) what makes the LSD a POS?

 

[revobreaker]

I doesnt work well, not a real "posi"

It just uses the brakes. It will apply brake to one wheel or the other

There was someone with a 09 that put in a trutrack and had no problems.

you forgot to mention about all the heat the get generated from using the brakes like that and end up causing your brakes to fade badly

That does suck a bit. I suppose it could be worse though. If it becomes something I can't stand, I'll just look into swapping it out.

trust me it will especially if you autox your truck

How much does this tru-trac thing cost?
I heard from my mechanic that changing LSD is PITA and cost a lot of labor hours?
What are the estimated cost you think you are going to spend on the swap?

 

[revobreaker]

Parts proly 500 plus fluid. I think gears would be more involved, just diff I dono

 

[darthyota]

well in my last toyota truck i put a spool in the rear diff in about 5 hours in my garage with out power tools so i would imagine about the same for an x being the rear end is essentialy the same

A buddy helped me pull third member and replace fluid took about 2 hrs
