Still haven't figured out why you INSIST on saying that... It's an out and out lie! you can beat on a trac-lok... i'm living proof! And don't bother telling me about pre-S197 mustang having problems... We have yet to see a S197 V6 break a trac-lok in this forum... over in the 4.0 collective we seen 2 Auburn fail... and no trac-locks have failed there either...

but a t-lok from stangmods.com will be ok if you just use it for DD and dont ever beat on it

when you got the motor rebuilt did you just take one out of a exploder/ranger from a junkyard or did you have it build with good parts? why not the junkyard route, it will work? doensnt mean it will last
this is based off my PERSONAL experience, that if you beat one hard enough, it wil lbreak

the tlok is unchanged, its the same thing that rolled out of the factory in the mid 80s in the bronco2/ranger, great im glad you have had luck with yours, i hope you contine to have luck with it, just because it hasnt failed on yours, doesnt mean that it wont fail

You said and i quote, "... and don't ever beat on it". That is simply not true... how many guys in here have put in a trac-lock and NEVER beat on it? Most guy go out and beat on it right after the break in period! I bet every guy that has a trac-lock in has beat on it! Saying you CAN NEVER beat on a trac-lock or it will break is a FLAT OUT LIE!

If you beat on ANYTHING hard enough it will break; what's your point?

RE: 3.73 0r 4.10
I have the Trac-lok and the guy at Powered by Ford sat with me for about 20 minutes telling me how everything in the rear end works with the Trac-lok and so on. Basically, since it's clutch operated, it will eventually after a long time wear down. He basically told me the only reason it would fail is if one tire were to roal through a puddle and the other one be dry and then you warm up your tires. Other than that it's meant to take a beating. Just telling you what I've been told but I have heard all good things about the Detroit Tru-Trak as well

no... don't go there... I'm am sure mustangman has lots of experience... i really do... i'm sure he has seen trac-locks fail... but for some reason the trac-locks are holding up ver well in the S197's... I don't know why.. but they are...
