Default Re: Powertrax Lock-Right -vs- No-Slip

I used to run a Powertrax unit in my 9" but the same unit was supposed to be able to fit into either 9 or 8.
Anyways, I would not recommend anything powertrax makes. When cornering the two hubs inside disengage and re-engage erratically and caused me to have more than a few spin outs. I took the unit apart and found broken springs that dampen the loading on the pinion shafts. I put it all back together and ran for a hundred or so miles and had the same problem again so I replaced with a posi. Saving to get a Tru trak from Eaton.
