Amc 20 ls

I ran into a gut that has a stock LS for sale for $25 - is there a way to check if it is in working condition without installing it?

Can you be more specific, like which one? A Tru-trac or a Trak-loc, or even a Power-lok from a fsj vehicle.

If it's a factory trac-loc don't bother. It's not worth the effort to do the install. The trac-lok works fine....for a few miles, then the clutches wear out. If you can find a cpmplete rear end with a good trac loc installed, great, but if you swap one into your exising rear end you'll have to set up your gears again, and the trac loc isn't worth the time and effort that entails.

It is out of a 84 CJ7 - I havent seen it yet and the gent that has it doesnt know what it is. Obviously, if its a quality locker I will jump on it but im not that lucky. Thanks for the info on the Factory LS.
