Pos-lok
 
I am dealing with the same issue except my CAD system developed a leak and chewed up my splines.... I tried the pos-lok earlier and was not that impressed as when it is cold or at highway speeds very difficult to lok in. Just my two cents I do have one for sale with only two days use of it.. Now in the process of replacing shafts or going to Dynatrac freespin hubs:rocking:

Dyna trac is over priced imo. With the you are paying for that sticker.

EMS is cheaper for the same thing IIRC.

Yeah, thanks for refering me to EMS but they are 8 weeks out and I am not sur I can live without my 4wheel drive up here in Michigan...Has anybody tried pinning or welding the coller over onto the intermediate shaft to get by??? Trying something this weekend will give updates..:humm:

You can weld the collar fast.
