trac loc for C8.25 carrier...

Hey guys, ill be regearing my rear 29 spline c825 soon with 4.10s or 4.56s. I was interested in putting a trac loc in but im having difficulty finding one, i know u need a new carrier, any one got any advice? Im paying to have the rear end done by a shop so i figured maybe if i brought them a track lock they wouldnt charge me too much if anyhting to throw it in there... any ideas??????

randys ring and pinion, jaw gears try them

If you have an open diff 8.25 now, I don't think I'd put a Chrysler Trak-lok in there. I would consider an Auburn Gear LSD, though.

Well the idea is to save a bit of cash, im going to look for a used one i guess if you cant buy them online for cheap.

The clutches wear out. You can buy a rebuild kit. Add the cost of a trac lok carrier, rebuild kit, labor to rebuild. It will also need to be rebuilt in the future as well.

A Detroit Trutrac limited slip is about $400 - 500, since you are already paying for an install with gear set-up why not get a Truetrac and never touch it agin ?

I have a Powertrax No-Slip in my 8.25 and it has excellent road manners. It clunks now and then but it works well.

Auburn Gear's 542074 LSD for the 29 spline 8.25" chryco.

Well those prices are a bit higher than i expected, i guess its going to have to stay open for a bit longer
