Re: I Guess I Have To Finish My 9inch

Gov Locks are not very strong. I broke mine in my truck which has a 9.5" 14 bolt. I never broke it as bad as that but I broke a bunch of teeth off the lock ring. Since I needed something to keep my truck on the road, I popped in an open carrier that I had.

I really miss the locking diff and never did get around to buying a posi for it. I may just put a Powertrax locker into the open carrier.
