Thanks. I did research how to make locking diffs but, the way it is now i replaced the diff shims with rubber discs that i made to pressure the spider gears and it works nice as a limited slip. When experimenting with locked axles the problem was it was hard to turn when the truck was fully loaded with dirt or rocks. With the limited slip setup the diffs slip more like an open diff when fully weighted.
