I knew they weren't available yet, but I think its great news that Tractech is going to manufacture a Detroit Locker for quads! I've always thought that would be the best thing for quads with a 2WD/4WD option. I have one in the front of my pickup, so I'm familiar with how it works. When you disengage the front drive shaft it pretty much behaves like a stock differential. Easy steering, good road manners, etc. Once you engage the front drive shaft it acts like a locker, and has all the bad manners that go with it. But it has great traction.
I have a buddy who called about the pricing on them, and he said they were going to cost between $350-$400! Thats what I paid for the Detroits that I put in my pickup.

Well because truck parts sell so much better than atv parts they have to make up with that lose in price. Take a look at brake pads, My factory brake pads cost 25 bucks or 22 for aftermarket pads. Thats how much the front caliper on a 1992 Dodge Cummings dually cost.
