The most underrated diff in the industry. I have them in my full-size Blazer (swapped semi-float 14 bolt rear axle because the stock 10 bolts are dangerously weak). Highly recommend...
I wheeled a mildly built TJ all over Moab with a Detroit TruTrac in the Dana 35 and never failed to climb an obstacle (Fins & Things, Hell’s Revenge, Poison Spider, Top of the World, Seven Mile Rim, including Wipeout Hill). I now have a Spartan locker in front to go with the TruTrac and despite the 31” tires, she just goes and goes.
Love it...just installed true tracs front and rear of my TJ with 4.11 gears in october. Then engine started knocking on christmas eve :(. Keep the offroading vids coming. Update: New Engine installed...300 miles and no issues. Truetracs great during tuesdays small ice storm.
How many miles have you put on your trutracs? I have a 9.25/D44 truck with 3.55. I'm looking at going trutrac front and rear 4.11, same as you, just in a half ton dodge. Curious how they have held up over the year you've been running them.
I really enjoy mine so far, I debated lockers but my 4x4 shop suggested the truetracs front & rear instead based on how I wheel vs daily driving. So far from the tails I have done and regular roads (all weather conditions) they have been great.
Ever get your wheels off the ground? If so, does the brake application trick work to get you going again? Been torn between lockers and trutrac myself.
@@joashtunison351 I had one in the front of my tj and it had trouble if I had a tire in the air. Swapped in a Yukon grizzly locker and the difference is insane. The trutrac would be fine for most people, but on really hard trails it isn’t enough.
@@joashtunison351 Go with the TruTrac. If you have one tire stuck in the air, a light application of the foot pedal brake while giving it some gas will cause the TruTrac to transfer power to the wheel on the ground (and the wheel in the air, it acts like a full locker). Have one installed in my 2000 GMC Yukon and went to hit some trails, I literally didn’t need 4WD. It was freaking insane. The TruTrac was digging and chewing through everything. The truck was shaking so violently when i crawling through sand I thought I was going to brake something or get stuck. Nope. These things are amazing, HIGHLY recommend. TruTrac will turn your vehicle into a beast.
How’s it working out? I’m already on 4.56 and plan on doing trutracs in the front only since the Willy’s come with some type of lsd in the rear already
@@josuemartinezmtz They were great! I ended up a year later going to D60s and e-lockers and 40s. The trutracs were awesome though while I had them. I'm sure when my e-lockers fail I'll wish I had them back.
I'm planning Truetracs front and rear on my 2013 JKU (non rubi, obviously). Prefer them to lockers for my style of wheeling. Expecting them to complement the stock BLD very well and still provide good steering control and manoeuvrability (that lockers don't!).
How has it been working out?! I too am wanting this in a manual JL hoping the BLD would help with the truetracs. How has it been? Come to a point you wish you had lockers? I live in AZ and have a lot of rocks.
The dana 44 is better in every way, unless you just want a daily driver. Dana 35s are not known to be good axle, especially for offroad usage. Now finding a dana 44 may be challenging and if you find one it'll be expensive
The Dana 35 holds up fine with the TruTrac and 31s. 35s might give you some trouble due to weight but with chromoly shafts and a judicious throttle foot you would be fine.
Truetrac wont lock. A locker will keep the wheels spinning at the same speed regardless of available traction. The truetrac needs some friction to engage.

Lmao wut the Dana 30 and Dana 44 is a killer setup however a Dana 30 and Dana 35 is something else unless you super the 35

👍 only thing left is a little more bite in the tires

Someone just recommended I get these front and rear for my JKU, I think you sold me.
sold me to .there is no way he would have made it farther than 100 foot with out the tru tracs
How has it been so far?!
Been looking for a month.
Ordering mine tonight.
That’s some slick shit
Just got Truetracs and 4:56 front and rest on my JK. Can't wait to try them out! Great video!

How were they for daily driving? Specifically the front TrueTrac? Thanks!

@@dad3562 Not installed yet. Budgeted for later this year.
miss my jeep, seeing this in action...
Excellent video 🇺🇸👍👍
Where was this video taken at?? Looks like the red clay mud in the Southeast...
Definitely looks like good ole Georgia red clay. Lived in North Georgia all my life and this stuff is definitely slick as owl crap.
The next cloudburst will wash the road out 👍👍👍
hello! Is it advisable to use a truetrack, is it recommended on the front axle? For a wrangler mixed use more than normal road?
Amazing😌😌😌😌😌😌
Put them in my 99 TJ 4.0 Automatic Dana 30 / 35 Yukon 4.10 w/ 33 12.50 BFG's Not a DD but nice so far!
How’s it been so far, especially when a tire comes off the ground?
4 Low is your friend…
Which type of tires was this
Dana 35 or 44? I know factory for the X is a 35. I'm curious if the 35 held up ok. I have an 04' with a 35 and I'm looking at my options
The dana 44 is better in every way, unless you just want a daily driver. Dana 35s are not known to be good axle, especially for offroad usage. Now finding a dana 44 may be challenging and if you find one it'll be expensive

Front and rear looks like...
My XJ have Truetrac in both diffs.
@@JeepV8El19 I believe the XJ is a beast with 2 Truetracs. I am planning to buy front and rear Truetrac for my XJ too.
What happens when you lift a tire?
You need to push the brake a little to create resistance and then it will transfer the power to the other wheel.
Sorry about it, but I'm new to this, whats the difference between truetrack and lockers????
Truetrac wont lock. A locker will keep the wheels spinning at the same speed regardless of available traction. The truetrac needs some friction to engage.
@@MarkJones-sk6vk not entirely correct..... Look up torsen differential to see how they actually work.....
@@URMyTorment why not just explain yourself instead of butting in and saying someones statement is wrong.
@@henrylima6974 you're wrong
@@Dave-ek2jx lol
Do you have them in the front and rear?
Yes detroit truetracks front and rear
@@usjeeprider9403 how do you like them so far???
