Lockers

[ExtremeOffRoad]

Hey has anyone used hot glue to lock diffs. If so how good is it?

[Grizzly4x4]

I've never done it but I have heard people recommend it. Supposedly you can peel it off the gears if you ever want to unlock it.

[spicollie]

Onto the spider gears.

He used epoxy, but it's the same process for any other adhesive.

The Trac gear and Diff disks aren't a waste of money. The advantage that they give you is a metal hex. I've stripped the hex out of the stock plastic gears a couple of times with a diff locked in the normal fashion.
