It is called a trac-loc and yes it needs new clutches.

Here's what you need

You can get the carbon fiber kit from Summit for about a hundred bucks. If you use royal purple in the diff, it already has the friction modifier in the fluid.

NO REBUILD!! TURE TRACK!! i love my true track. it seems to work better than a perfectly functioning track lok. it put more controll to the driver. no pads to wear anyways!! if i knew that the true track would be that much better, i would have swaped it out even when the trac lok was fine

And you payed how much for that true-trak? There's a huge difference in price between the 2.

^^^ that is true. i did not take that in consideration for the true track. at the time, money was not really that big of a deal for me, for once. let me re-phrase that: the true track is defenatly the way to go if you can spare the extra money, 300 more i think. its well worth the performance and the fact that it will never have to be rebuilt. its a great piece of metal.

ps. the thread is "posi/trutrac." it did not say "posi/tru trac need cheap" the OP never stated anything about price and budget. in that case, true track
