Detroit Locker or No?
-
This is the rear axle from a 1972 C-20. I Would like to know if this is a locker or not. I don't know what to look for....Hope you can tell from the pictures. I finally found the ratio, it is stamped on the inside end of the pinion shaft, 41:10 as shown in the pic. That would be a 4.10:1, could I be lucky enough to have a locker too??? Thanks for any help you can offer. LockDoc

Re: Detroit Locker or No?
I would say no. As you can see the spider gears that would be replaced by the detroit.

That dark mark is just a grease smear, but you get the idea just smooth metal, you might also see a spring above the smooth metal. but as long as you don't see gears, you're good.

Thanks Adam, looks like some kind of smooth disk or gear case in there. LockDoc
