Thought I hit pay-dirt when I saw the post subject on this post, but the thread kind of went sideways... I am soon to be installing a limited slip. One shop recommended Yukon DuraGrip, without mention as to options or why they choose this over other limited slip diff's.
I am about to re-gear and want to do limited slip dif "while I am in there". Yukin DuraGrip and Eaton Detroit TrueTrac are what I keep coming across, and TrueTrac seems to be more popular here.
Everything I read does mention the friction modifier and periodic maintenance required for the DuraGrip. And doesn't the TrueTrac benefit from a little brake application to engage (I can have my facts wrong.. hence this post) and hence, better for an auto transmission?
I don't know what I don't know... Please school me on the difference between these two options relative to my use case. 2000 4.0, NV3550 5spd. About to add 4.56's. Daily Driver. Sees no rock crawling or hard routes, mainly soft outer beach sand, NE winters and dirt/fire roads to backcountry backpacking base camps.
