front axle

[BackyardWarrior]

I've got a 99 ranger, any idea on what my front axle is? and would it be worth putting a locker in it (IFS)? i've got 8.8 posi in the rear with 4.10's

Its a SLA Dana 35, and no. I wouldn't put a locker in it

Limited slip will allow you to turn better. Honestly I don't know if a locker would effect turning but it will put alot of stress on your axles. I broke a hub with a L/S fyi.

I got rid of the auto locking hubs, I hate those things, so i've got the manual hubs now, so as long as they are disengaged turning wouldn't make a difference on the road i'd imagine. And on the trail there wouldn't be much bind, it'd slip in the dirt when the hubs are engaged.
