Hi, I have a LockRite in the D35 in my Ranger , did the c clip eliminator with a internal spring 1 year ago, it blew out the dust cap so I tried the external spring type. Was out doing light/ moderate fire road/creek bed wheeling and heard a binding sound, went to move the truck forward and the center axle u-joint blew up. So I am wondering , everything that is left intact spins and moves properly ,locker seems to engage/disengage.Did the u- joint (2 months old) grenade or did the c clip spring put on to much pressure? Want some ideas before deciding to tear diff out to check the locker?
