i heard of posilock for 4x2 but hwat other options do i have to make my 4x2 more reliable when i go wheeling? wht is the cheapest way to do that so i dont loose traction to the wrong wheel? also, swaybar upgrade... what do u guys recommend? i already got rancho5000 but it still sway like a boat. would sway bar help? if so, any recommendations? i guess i need price range. am kinda broke here but hate to get seasick everyday when i goto work. thanks for your input.
 






swak6287,
Seeing as that you are broke try and buy some poly bushings for you stock sway bars first. that's the cheapest thing to do($10?). The cheapest Limited slip would be a Trak-Lok, but you really don't want to do that, because they don't last very long. You gotta remember you only have one wheel driving if you have open diffs, if you get limited slip like a Auburn Pro, or better yet a locker, now you have 2 wheels driving. This will make a very big differance, you won't believe it. Aubrun Pro(L/S) or maybe a Power trax no slip locker would be better. Remember do it right the first time and you won't have to spend more money later trying to get it fixed or replaced.
 






do u know if they sell those poly bushings at pepboys or those shops or should i try the internet. what other places on the truck can i use poly bushing? besides the swaybar and the front shocks?
thanks for yourhelp
p/s wife is pregnent, so all this rockig is uncomfortale for her.
 






Just about any 4x4 shop would have them. national tire and Wheel, 4wheel parts wholesalers, maybe even carparts.com.
You could aways call Pep boys and ask.
