detroit true trac, truly a weak sister, pictures too
Are they any good ? IMO no no no no they are not. I ran one in a 12bolt under my 1978 Jimmy. I didnt have big tires (33s) or a big motor (310 sbc) and i popped that thing like crackin a walnut, I thought i was gona bust a U-joint long before the truetrac ever gave me a problem, was i ever wrong.
I think a quik locker is a way better way to go. Don't do it man steer clear there a time bomb,,, Eaton / Detriot should be ashamed of themselfs for not maketing this as a light duty use only unit. I've run a quicklocker on the street for must be 15 years now in my 63 f-100 with 500hp 461 bbc 4spd and 3.25 9".....and i have at times punished that thing, works just fine on the street.

TrueTrac is a fine piece for many uses, especially circle track and road racing. They have a one year warranty also, if that helps.
For serious off-road use, a locker or spool is the only answer

Hmmm, wonder if they're getting their castings from China...

 Casting grain looks cheesy.  I talked to a guy from Eaton a while back, He said the TrueTrac was stronger than the Eaton Posi.
