    So, Walt is finally getting the diff in (he should have had it Friday). Hopefully the car will be back on the road in a week.

    So apart from this little fiasco, has the TrueTrac otherwise been good to you?

    It's been broken since day 1, so no.

    That's the way it usually is. I just got unlucky because there was a whole batch of them I guess that was fucked up.

    If I had to do this again, I would go with the WaveTrac. Having heard so much good things about it and that it can take more power than the TrueTrac and all. If and when it comes out, I mean.

    Only trouble I've ever had was getting axles in/out. My guys in KY say they had a lot of trouble this time too, getting stocks out and DSS axles in. Still wish there was a solid axle rear available.
