- '79 Cj5, 258 with Howell Fuel injection kit, T18 with dana 20 Tcase, dana 30 front with Detroit locker, AMC 20 rear with LSD and one piece shafts, Warn 8k winch, 1" body lift, 2" suspension lift, 33 tires
In the front end of my jeep is a Dana 30. 79cj5. It has a Detroit locker according to the PO. I took it out for a cruise off road for the first time Sunday. I was in granny low, 4low and hubs unlocked. It was a dirt road that was fairly steep and banked to the right. I kept hearing a "clunk, and a pop" noise. Is this normal? I'm unfamiliar with this type of locker and have never driven with one. And I've never heard it before on the street. Also, a guy at work told me a Detroit in the front wth a Dana 30 will most likely break a shaft. Is this true?
