I'm gonna try to pack mine with heavy grease and see how that works.

If you want to lock them perminantly, then pack them with JB Weld.

I just pulled the diffs out of my 4-Tec and they weren't what I was expecting. There is no planetary gears or anything. It looks like a non-adjustable ball diff (if that is even possible). So I don't know what to do with then. I guess I will try the car on ABS without locked diffs and see how it does.

Yea, thats what I though but there isn't


There might be some trick to it, but I haven't figured it out yet.
