then you'll hear an occasional pop, or in really tight turns you'll hear it ratchetting.beyond that...same same"
"honestly it felt "squirely" I do not know how else to describe it. It was like every steering component went loose on the truck in those conditions and I had to constantly correct the steering a hair in each direction every few seconds. Maybe it was just me but I didn't like it."
"I have one in my D1 its nice, my make some noise around a tight corner hitten the gas a lilltle. I havent had it in the snow yet, so I cant say any thing their. awsome in the sand."
"A member in our Arizona group has 96 DI with a detroit in the back and a ARB in the front and he loves the Detroit.
He's got 4" of lift and is running 35's.
No side effects to speak of accept sharp cornering you'll hear a little clicking. He's had his in for about 6 months."

"That is unless the street is snow or ice covered. I'll not go back to a Detroit, not that it was that bad, cause I dealt wit hit for 2 years but it was weird enough for me not have the desire to go back. Dry highway or even rain I could never tell.
Also I didn't like the way it crabbed up slick muddy hills."
Could that be because it locked when cornering on ice and snow, and ratcheted(unlocked) when cornering in good traction conditions? Actually a lot of the posts seem to contradict each other.
