Howdy.
I put in a Detroit locker in my 91 pickup this last weekend and think I may have some issues. While driving down the road it seems to be pulling to the left and right at times for just a second. I can hear the locker click when it does this. I'm new to lockers, and understand that Detroits are locked in all the time, I'm guessing this slight pulling has to do with that.
The other and more worrisome issue for me occurs when I'm driving also. It feels like something seizes in the rear end, causing the truck to jump and a shockwave to go though the truck, driveline to pedal. The sound is a moderately loud 'clunk'. It seems to happen randomly, above twenty mph in decceleration and acceleration. Any input? Am I overthinking all this? Ive put 2 1/2 bottles of axle fluid in it so far, thinking I'll get underneath it today and try to get some more in it.
Thanks for reading!
