Ok so spool is in and it is a whole new ball game haha, must admit much better traction, pity that as soon as i put it in the next day had to be rain...
wasnt too bad , really all comes down to driving sensibly and not like a complete tosser, little bit of shuddering on sharp turns but if i get on the brake a little bit while takin short turns it really helps.

Should of bought a real locker instead of a spool. Not only the legalities but have fun chewing tyres etc.

What do you mean like a true tac or something?, and the only way my tyres will wear stupidly fast is if i put my foot down and be stupid which is very rarely, beside i can usually pick up a set of stockos for a carton of piss.

Having the diff locked will mean it will chatter at low speeds which will wear tyres. Something the cops now are pretty clued on with.

Yeah i'm aware of that lol.. i ment when you said get a proper locker and its not that bad. If there were cops near me i would just have to be cautious, not that hard.

I wouldn't mind getting a detroit diff but a bit expensive
