Well, I scrapped 3100 lbs of jeep part's and my '66 jeep truck for $672. I now have a detroit locker in my dana 44 rear with 4.09 gears. I haven't got it back in the jeep yet, I'm really worried about how it's going to drive. I've had a lock rite before and it was ok on the street. I talked to a guy this past weekend that has drove a few jeeps with detroit's and he said that a standard was tricky to drive but an auto was a lot better. I've got drill this weekend so I won't be able to get it all back together, but I'll have done by next week. Also, I had the front spider gear's welded, that'll be different I'm sure. The next thing I have to do is rotate the pinion on a dana 44 front housing. I live close to knoxeville Tn. does anyone know where I can get this done? I've found a place is S. Carolina that's about 7 hours away but I would like to find someone closer to home.
Parts for locker!

Hudlow axle in Rossville GA, it's about 20 minutes outside Chattanooga. He does excellent work on any and all axles. He has a website so you can google him. He's done drive shafts for me but set up rocks and splined shafts for other I know. He also turned the knuckles on a scout 44 for my buddies CJ.
