1028 with nv4500

[southdave]

I was home, and decided to drive the 1028 a bit after my filter relocation.
I notice when I stopped and release the clutch at a stop sign ect.. my locker seemed kicked in?? would that happen,can it be adjusted in some fashion it kind of annoying with the clunkikng and chrepping and not to ment all the fish tailing when it rains.

That's how the locker works. Driveshaft input makes it do it's thing. If that's a Detroit it is especially true. You can learn to live with it or spend the $$$ to swap out the carrier for an Auburn style or clutch style locker as opposed to more notchy detroits or ratchet styles.

Adjust up the rear brakes. It will help some but it will always do it.

Lube?

Nice looking truck! Have you changed your diff gear lube? Different locker manufacturers recommend certain types of lube for their setup. With the correct lube it will quiet down (some), and definitely run cooler. This will also help with the proper operation of the locker.

I believe the lube you are refering to is the limited slip additive. Not applicable for a Detroilt or GovLoc.
