well lockers have no give, the main thing with a diff is when you corner one wheel spins faster than the other so the diff has to allow for this, lovckers and really tight lsd's don't and you'll get a bit of wheel skipping, which with a locker is more pronounced the skipping is basically the wheel trying to match the speed but fasiling, twisting the axle, and then the axle saying no more twist and it skips to untwist a bit..

and lsd doesn'ty cause the axle to twist, well as much anyway, so there nicer on driveline bits..

lockers are tops for direct hookup tho, which is why you'll find drags cars run spools, which is basically a locker, and a lot of RWD racing cars run them..

paulie not yet *touch wood* if i drove the car every day id say i would have by now, rex acxles arn't very big..

luckily every car ive driven witha locker is mainly a track toy so it doesn't see the normal sort of loads a daily car would, lots of car parks would bust axles fairly regurally id guess.

Aidwin - yeah they are really cool guys become friends with them over PAS .... they want me to come down to Willeton to visit when ive got my car back :D

haha i was tired .... it was funny cos this morning paul's muttering woke me up but i thought i was home and it was my mum saying something to me so i go "yeah right whatever" then open my eyes and took a while to figure out where i was

what tha? NO but she'll normally open my bedroom door in the morning and say something like "im going to work see you tonight" orrr "can you remember to put the bins out" or something like that. Thats what i tohught it was!

    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
    • For DBA, check out their guide table here. https://dba.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/Direct_Replacement-Guide-2021.2.pdf   Additionally they have some other guides and info on how to make sure you choose the right pad.
    • Sorry, just assumed that talk of coloured pads meant EBC red/green/yellow/shit stuff. I don't know the DBA pads, but it's a reasonable bet that they will be OK. DBA make good stuff generally. Those 4000 series rotors I linked to are very good. I may well replace the RDA rotors I have with those when required.
    • The average previous owner for these cars were basically S-chassis owners in the US. Teenagers or teenager-adjacent. I often tell people that neglect is easier to fix than something that was actively "repaired" by previous owners.
