Diff Lockdown Kit

keninger · 07-05-2019, 02:11 AM

Hi, does anyone have any measured data before/after installing the Diff Lockdown kit? I mean 60 ft times or 0-60 time, or anything that would show that wheelhop was reduced thus traction improved.

what i can tell you about it is that it transfers some noise especially in 3rd or 4th at low rpms. Im an auto so i never had wheel hop so i cant really help you in that department

I was going to weld one up myself I was thinking of putting high strength thin hard rubber behind where it mounts on differential side so there is no flex back..

You never see noise mentioned on these theads but makes sense. Never tried one myself, seems likely to transfer stress to a place it wasnt meant to go.
