Powertrax

Has anyone installed one of these in your trucks? If so was it a pain to do and was it worth it ?

Well, well, well...this couldn't have been timed better. I installed a No-Slip unit last November. The installation wasn't difficult...as long as you are fairly mechanically inclined. I enjoyed the new found traction...BUT the drivability was lacking. The unit was very noisy/clunky...especially shifting from park to drive, and it hopped going around corners sometimes. I actually removed it last night, and put back the stock spider gears...because I have a metal on metal sound coming from, I think my transfer case, that I have to track down.

 

So...overall I wasn't too happy with it. I will probably look at something different. This is just my .02...take it for what its worth. Oh, by the way...I have a Powertrax unit for sale if your interested...

I too was interested in the No-Slip, but after reading reviews and comments from owners I changed my mind. The concensus seemed to be that they work great for traction but the streetability definitely suffers. Think I would go with the G80 or an aftermarket limited-slip.
