Lokka works better on fixed hubs, I have one on my off road motor, and it is just the dogs b, but on autos it plays around a bit, this is because it only works when there is a load on the diff and with auto hubs that can be off and on when going from forward to reverse etc, to get out of a sticky situation, but do not think about putting one on the rear diff, as you would be better off just locking it up cos this is what the Lokka will do anyway as on the rear it is driven all the time, Rick

I did a full photo report on here when I did mine, you may need different thrust washers, I did and could not get them from the stealers, so stuck em in the lathe and reduced their thickness, it is all in the report, I am no good at searching but I a sure you will find it, Rick
