Hello John,You only need to use the button if your running a live axil (TR3=
& 4s). You must have the button installed so that you can set the axil bea=
ring load (with shims) when installing the axils. Both the axils will touch=
the button.=C2=A0The TR6 uses an independent rear end and thus you don't h=
ave to set axil bearing loads together, thus no button. Each axil is indepe=
ndent from the other. The rest of the differential/pumpkin is the same.=C2=
=A0FYI, I just sent my live axil rear end to the Southwick=C2=A0machine sho=
p to install the ford type HD axils (no bearing adjustment needed anymore) =
and you don't have to use the button either. You may want to thing about th=
is. Price $1k I can send you a picture of the button and measurements if yo=
u want.=C2=A0Thxs. Steve=20

Hi,
I'm setting up a 3.70 diff and I had a Detriot Locker kicking around, so I =
figured I should use it as a posi. In any case, my TR6 axles seem to bottom=
out in the Detroit Locker. Note: I had to split the locker (which was held=
together with a couple of bolts) so that I could install the ring gear and=
wouldn't you know it - there was enough spring tension in device to pop op=
en. So, I had to figure out how to re-assemble it. Maybe I goofed in the re=
-assembly.
I bought the Locker a long time ago from a guy named Pancho from the west c=
oast. He pulled the part from a Devin Tr3 that he had been vintage racing b=
ut he was returning the car to street trim.
The question is: I know that Quaifes have a center "button" that you can le=
ave out or else the TR6 axles bottom - Does the Locker has a similar piece =
that needs to be there for TR3's but not TR6?
I'd appreciate any advice!!
Right now, I'm pulling one of my Quaifes apart so I can install the 3.70 ge=
ar on that, but I'd rather have the diffs all rady to just pop in and NOT h=
ave to pull the carrier and pinion if I need a gear change!!

mer, MA (VRG next weekend). Psyched!!
