    Aftermarket lockers

    I would be a little concerned about the strength of the 215 Differential to support a TrueTrac. I’m a bit encouraged, that the Engineers chose to keep this bit in the TRX. I’m leaning towards installing the TrueTrac, and seeing if stuff breaks. Would be a good test for the community. I’m a...
