The Tru-trac will operate like its not in there on the road and although its not a true locker it thinks it is. Selectables are byfar the best of both worlds but come with a price. Options out there would be a TT - front or rear , select-able should be in the front . Skids and rock rails are very important . I know people in this club with one (Rear) locker , open front and they do okay on moderate trails with a little more than normal throttle. Then there are the guys open/open that are convinced they can run anything. Its up to you but look at what you want to do , that alone is hard right now as you dont know how big a HOOK this sport is. JKs have weak front axles so also put on the list a gusset kit or truss kit. There , I just extended your list for you. FjR68

Lol, from what I hear the Vettes are a lot more trouble than the Jeeps.

I have cursed many times at my Vette lol, but I love it. 1978 Silver Anniversary edition B2Z. The best part..... I got it for free :-o

Thank you for the welcome Lisa and I am wanting to go wheeling too, I just want to the priorities right so I can get my parts ordered and do the job once (hopefully).

Have a great day guys. Embrace the snow Northern Worcester County :shock:
