One more thing. Go on any chevy truck forum and see all the people that are blowing these g80's apart. Most are replacing them with a auburn or regular limited slip because the g80 is shit. Put more power to the truck , or larger tires or just use it as a truck and that piece of shit will break. Eaton failed on this one
The f150's come with electric locker in the rear that will put the crappy g80 to shame. The fag that made this video didn't want to compare to that truck
first of all I just wanna say this is a retarded test and the driver prob owns a a prius so he knows nothin about drivin trucks. Secondly if ur truck is truly in a situation where one side is losin traction then usually slow and steady with breakin at the right times works wonderfully
How stupid and fake I'm a die hard jeep guy but my father has a 05 cummins and that dodge never gets stuck and it's stock. He works on the pipeline so there are some nasty ruts
@MICHAELLEEKLINE i have a 2002 jeep tj and even with 31 inch tires the truck couldant get out of a snowy uphill driveway... 3 of us had to push..this eaton G80 soulds expensive but very very good
@cb7pwn No, doubt, my Jeep XJ will mop it up on any pickup! Plus, if my LSD doesn't want to get me up a slick surface, then I pop the hand-brake 2 notches up; it will always work like a pseudo-locker when I do that!
You notice when they showed the second Ford with the Limited Slip differential when they cut to it the tires were already spinning. The driver was probably flooring it and overcoming the limited slip with to much torque input from the engine. I bet if they started slow it would have made it.
@CaseIH232 if the 4x4 doesn't have a locker then get the 4x2 with the locker, however if the 4x4 has 1 locker(rear axle) and 1 open differential(front) then get the 4x4.
its kinda funny how withh all the trucks except the chevy that when they started on the rollers the floored its and the tires spun like no other... and well next time i see rollers like that when im going up a hill ill remember to go around it
The nice thing about my f250 is that comes with solid 4x4 axles standard. If only turning corners wouldn't be such a pain in the butt. I found the advantage of the lock feature when I was going up a 4 inch curb, once I locked the hubs it went smoothly with no gas applied.
and silverados do not have front locking diffs from the factory, they have an optional rear locking diff, which i believe is standard with z71 if i remeber correctly
Maybe the other fucking trucks don't work, cause you will never be climbing a fucking hill and the highway department all of a sudden decides to put fucking rollers in the middle of the
I can't wait to go up a fucking hill with rollers all over the passenger side now. What kind of fucking stupid test is this? This'll never happen in real life.
Also, some can be adjusted to transfer more torgue as the RPM's increase.
LSD's are better than open differentials, but in a case like this, with complete loss of traction on one side, a fully locking differential is best. Offcourse, you often have a mix of traction, and you also have to factor in the increased turning radius you get with locked differentials.
It's all about finding the right compromise for your situation.
The Eaton G80 can lock fully, which makes it a locking differential, not a Limited Slip differential. A LSD will always have a little slip, hence the name. And yes, most LSD's are a wee bit on the "sloppy" side on purpose, since it reduces tire wear and allows tighter turning circles during normal driving.
So whats the difference between a Posi rear end and limited slip? I always thought limited slip alternated power between the two rear wheels, and posi both spun no matter what the conditions were
@rockinfaceplant0000 - if i was you i would look for something like a detroit locker if you do any offroading. my truck is on its second g-80 in just over 43000 kilometers. i should really mension that my truck has never been offroad and the worst its seen is snow on the roads. even the new one bangs like crazy. a grenade looking for a place to explode
Decent vid, but they're not telling you the whole story on four wheel drive versus a locker on the rear. If you're in a situation where there is no traction on one side of the vehicle, as in the video, yes a rear locker is going to help more. However, if you have no traction on one axle, as if the rollers were on both rear wheels, the locker isn't going to help, while four wheel drive could use the traction on the front axle to move the vehicle
Was I the only one that noticed that they used the 4WD Silverado ECSB Z71 for the 2WD comparison and the 2WD Sierra CCSB for the 4WD comparison? Haha!
@TBSSAWDLS2 Z71 Was only ever made in a 4x4 hence the name Z71 OFFROAD and if the second truck wasn't four wheel drive It was missing the 4x4 decals. So NFSGamerUSA is right prob just a goof up with the making of the video or a mess up in editing

@TBSSAWDLS2 No shit Sherlock, but it's pretty obvious the clips were mixed up. Furthermore, 4x4 models have a "4x4" decal on the rear fender and sit higher in the front; that Sierra CCSB is clearly a 2WD.
I don't know why all truck manufacturers don't put this in. On the chevy's sticker it lists the locker at 280 us dollars, If I remember right. Well worth it.
Everything else is coming standard nowadays and its a shame! Air conditioning, power seats, etc. But no one seems to care about lockers. If you do anything off road you should have a locker. Even just one can get you out of a bind.
You gotta know how to drive a limited slip.. this video is point less!!! If you start spinning with a factory lsd then put your foot lightly on the break. That usually will cause it to grab posi....
Open is shit, but they could've gotten up with limited slip... less gas, slightly apply brakes... but if I had the money I'd still just get a locking diff.
and notice how the chevy/gmc is used as the good ones, the ford is not as good, and dodge is the worst, and if toyota and nissan was here, they would be behind the dodge, GM FTW!!!! and the locker is awsome also.
@296jayce hate to burst your "GM FTW" bubble but ford has lockers on their big trucks (the ones that should have been tested) and werent cuz they knew it would win
@robby844 well if you hate bursting my bubble, then good news, you didn't, because GM is still better than ford, we have more strength, better quality, have diff locks on almost all S.U.V.'s and trucks, plus we have better safety, so just accept the fact, GM is better.
@296jayce really? you cant back that up.my dads ford taurus just turned 285000 miles with the original engine and trans.my neighbors impala has already had 6 transmission in it at just over 120k.oh i also forgot to say hes on his 3rd engine.my buddys HAD a malibu with 65k and 4 engines.my neighbor HAD a chevy with a durashit the when he got rid of it it was on its 3rd trans and 2nd engine.now he drives a ford and has put over 300000 miles on it never had any trouble.
@robby844 ok, u might not have had trouble with them, but they still cant be compared to a chevy, thats the reason ford is around, so that chevy looks even better humiliating u with dodge, toyota and nissan. and read the highest rated comments, apparently 48 ppl voted and said so, plus people are telling u that fords suck. dude, just stop, your only embarrassing your self. its not even funny anymore.
@296jayce i would rather be the Driver that Returned On Foot than to admit chevy is great.admit it.you know they are pieces of shit.it has been proven time and time again.why ford transmissions out last chevy? why do ford engines out last chevy?
@robby844 i dont know where u get your info from, but chevy's have always out lasted ford, ford trannys are shit, there engines are garbage, fords look like ass, and are not as reliable as chevy, ill give you this, they are better than dodge in some ways, but even then, still wont be able to beat them, i had fords, and dodges, and chevys, and the chevys have always ran hella better than fords, its proven fact, and personal experience. GM - FTW!
@296jayce wow then why do people i know have shitloads of trouble with chevys? why do new chevys develop a knock at 30-45k? why did chevy admit that the engines are only made to last 100k so you come back and buy another one? why are chevy engines made in a gook plant? why is the cobalt and aveo built by kia? why is the equinox and traverse built by suzuki? and my persopnal experience has been that chevys bend in the middle and fords dont.why do chevy tran's explode when they get weight on them?
@296jayce the company i worked for had all chevys and some fords.all the chevys broke down.the engines are junk and keep dropping turbos and injectors.not to mention the oil lines plugging up if you dont change the oil every 2000 miles.and dont even get me started on dodge they are pure junk.test drove one and the oil pump in the trans broke out of the casting and the trans seized up.on 2 different trucks one right after the other.and why did our chevys front ends fall out and roll
@296jayce under the trucks? we had 8 trucks that it happened to.chevys excuse "oh well its just a characteristic of the suspension" WTF is that BS? same excuse with the turbo problem.i mean jesus christ when are you gonna admit that your product is fucked up?
@robby844 chevy is one of the top companies made, wut about when ford had the ignition problem, look at the facts, i got better things to do than argue with some ford fan. im done chevy will always be better, accept it or not, my life goes on, and chevy will still be better. if u accept that or not is on you, you make your self look foolish trying to defend ford on a vid that makes chevy look good, but wut ever thats u, and your life. god bless u, ur going to need it when ford kills u in a crash
@296jayce fuck you and god asshole.always some asshole has to ruin somebodies day.oh and what about chevys ecu problems where the cars burst into flame for no reason?
@robby844 dude, your ruined your own day, i said nothing to ruin any day, there is alway an ignoran ford fan fag fuck who always takes thing the wrong way, obviously chevy is better, if your a ford guy, then fine, i got better things to do then get mad over a damn video and post shit up about it, can u not see that im trying to end this, i got a life, if your life is arguing over youtube, well them leave me out of it, so good day/night, and burn in bitch ass cock sucker.
@robby844 a couple of typos, really, u cant read that still, god damn you r so sad, its a shame to all men. Im done talking to you, go learn to read and figure out stuff in school or some shit. its over
@robby844 typical illiterate ford red neck inbreeding cyber tough guy, get a life and stfu already, chevy isn't pussy, YOUR pussy, i get pussy, theirs a difference, go molest your cousin or gay partner or some shit, and stop talking shit.
@robby844 is a locker, it would slip just a bit then lock, and he is the original ouner and has no mods on it. And ive read on many forums that these trucks had lockers in the rear.
@robby844 when the fuck did i ever say i was a chevy guy? Im a Dodge person. but i oun 2 fords, and dont like them lol. So seriously guy, WTF are you going off about? LOL now it just got funny.
@robby844 The newest chevy ive found with the g80 option is 2006. So the one that is in the vid is the right year to have one. But agian, i dont know what the "nice try" phrase is ment for. This isnt a contest.
well, i´m not saying eaton locking diff is good or bad, but, any of the other trucks equiped with a rear locking diferential will go as well as the chevy.... the key is the Locking differential, not so much the truck, but anywat, the video is a nice demonstration of the real need of a locker.
@Davidbirtles1 You can turn quite a bit at very low speeds with a little bit of tire wear and squeal, but any speed higher than 10 MPH or so, and it might deactivate while turning or just by a speed moniter.
No reason to rag on the ford or dodge, both of those companies also have available posi-traction differentials, obviously the trucks in the video didn't have that equipment though.
This may be a good product if you have a stock truck but once you put power through it it grenades itself, no many things to go wrong, whats wrong with the run of the mill off road locker? seriously they work great and cost a hell of a lot less.
DUDE! I never knew that 4x4 isn't all that it's cracked up to be. Well...at least I learned something today LOL!!! But that GMC Sierra looked sexy climbing up that hill, haha. I want one!
@andydmaan in 2 wheel drive regardless if its locked or not you can go any speed.. only when its in 4 wheel drive you have to watch your speed because of your transfercase
Anywhere 4x4 with open differentials can go maybe. I will bet that my front and rear ARB Air Lockers will take me places you could only dream of going.
I don't really see where the Ford had a problem. I have an '02 with a factory installed LS differential, and I've never witnessed only one wheel spinning. I go anywhere and everywhere with my truck. The only thing thats limiting where I go is the ride height. I scrub frame before I get stuck.
with a locker on my 2WD truck i can go basically anywhere a 4WD can (aside from crazy mud slinging or rock climbing) and there are less mechanical components that can break...
@GamePyro well ya but if you buy a chevy z71 then you can put it in 4 wd low and it locks all of the wheels automatically so you can do all that crazy stuff and then if you do put lockers and a lift on it you will have a badass truck
Two things. First, only idiots buy 2WD trucks. Second, Ford offers in it's F-150 an electronic locking differential, not the ancient G80 Detroit Locker you see here on the Chevy. I owned both and let me tell you the F-150's electronic system is far, far superior. No wheel spin and no drama.
yes the e locker may have its advantages...but thisone seems a bit more user friendly in that it is AUTOMATIC....................GM was first with LOCKERS bub...ford just came up the rear......nothing agianst fordd though
my ford has a locking diff i can apply myself that stays on permanently - no waiting for it to kick in. good thing i didnt buy a chevy, huh? raptor ftw
Ive replaced a hand full of these! Everyone of them tore out everything at about 55mph! The idea is great. Though I have to agree with the Swiss watch internals. I dont want it locking too hard!!!
@YoungerPrice explain how the ford is a piece of shit? cause they put a locker in the silverado. if they put a locker in the f15 and ram it would do the same but even better. chevy makes the worst line of trucks. look at sales and reviews from the past 20 years .
@skaterboy520c even if the f150 and the ram put in the locker i would still say they are a piece of shit because they copied off of GM which wont happen because its patent by GM so the only way is for the owner to do it.Which requires ALOT of mechanical experience
Type in how a eaton g80 works, for another vid on this, but they have too many small parts, as you can see in the other vid, thats why they are prone to exploding, hence the nickname GOV-BOMB. I have vids of my aussie(not an ARB) lunchbox at work in my jeep. Its locked all the time, except in turns. As you can see in this vid, the gov bomb has to be "spun up' creating massive shockloads on the swiss watch style internal parts, and hampering the reliability of this particular unit.
I want this video on my A760 unit.

Fact.... the 4x4 demo... the GM vehicle was a 2WD... mistake yes but it proves that a 2wd GM beats a 4x4 ford or dodge under the roller conditions.

Fact... any Z71 GM truck WILL HAVE a G80 locking differential
Fact ... G80 locking differentials CAN BE on GM trucks that do NOT have Z71
Fact ... G80 is a REAR locking diff ONLY

robby844 1 year ago
@robby844 ok, u might not have had trouble with them, but they still cant be compared to a chevy, thats the reason ford is around, so that chevy looks even better humiliating u with dodge, toyota and nissan. and read the highest rated comments, apparently 48 ppl voted and said so, plus people are telling u that fords suck. dude, just stop, your only embarrassing your self. its not even funny anymore.

@296jayce i would rather be the Driver that Returned On Foot than to admit chevy is great.admit it.you know they are pieces of shit.it has been proven time and time again.why ford transmissions out last chevy? why do ford engines out last chevy?
robby844 1 year ago
@robby844 i dont know where u get your info from, but chevy's have always out lasted ford, ford trannys are shit, there engines are garbage, fords look like ass, and are not as reliable as chevy, ill give you this, they are better than dodge in some ways, but even then, still wont be able to beat them, i had fords, and dodges, and chevys, and the chevys have always ran hella better than fords, its proven fact, and personal experience. GM - FTW!

@296jayce wow then why do people i know have shitloads of trouble with chevys? why do new chevys develop a knock at 30-45k? why did chevy admit that the engines are only made to last 100k so you come back and buy another one? why are chevy engines made in a gook plant? why is the cobalt and aveo built by kia? why is the equinox and traverse built by suzuki? and my persopnal experience has been that chevys bend in the middle and fords dont.why do chevy tran's explode when they get weight on them?
robby844 1 year ago
@296jayce the company i worked for had all chevys and some fords.all the chevys broke down.the engines are junk and keep dropping turbos and injectors.not to mention the oil lines plugging up if you dont change the oil every 2000 miles.and dont even get me started on dodge they are pure junk.test drove one and the oil pump in the trans broke out of the casting and the trans seized up.on 2 different trucks one right after the other.and why did our chevys front ends fall out and roll

@robby844 chevy is one of the top companies made, wut about when ford had the ignition problem, look at the facts, i got better things to do than argue with some ford fan. im done chevy will always be better, accept it or not, my life goes on, and chevy will still be better. if u accept that or not is on you, you make your self look foolish trying to defend ford on a vid that makes chevy look good, but wut ever thats u, and your life. god bless u, ur going to need it when ford kills u in a crash

well, i´m not saying eaton locking diff is good or bad, but, any of the other trucks equiped with a rear locking diferential will go as well as the chevy.... the key is the Locking differential, not so much the truck, but anywat, the video is a nice demonstration of the real need of a locker.

If you don't have a locker you don't really have a 4x4.
One front and one rear wheel is still only two wheel drive :)

forgive me for asking haha
Davidbirtles1 1 year ago
@Davidbirtles1 You can turn quite a bit at very low speeds with a little bit of tire wear and squeal, but any speed higher than 10 MPH or so, and it might deactivate while turning or just by a speed moniter.
MaxwellReming 1 year ago
@Davidbirtles1 The locker will engage when there is excessive wheel spin.
The speed difference between the inner and outer wheels is rarely enough to trigger the lock.
From time to time while making a shape turn like you would in a parking lot or other very tight area mine will lock.
But it quickly unlocks as soon as I straighten the truck out.
sirhcskoorb 1 year ago
I have the eaton G80 in my truck and love it.
No reason to rag on the ford or dodge, both of those companies also have available posi-traction differentials, obviously the trucks in the video didn't have that equipment though.

paulktmrider 2 years ago
I don't really see where the Ford had a problem. I have an '02 with a factory installed LS differential, and I've never witnessed only one wheel spinning. I go anywhere and everywhere with my truck. The only thing thats limiting where I go is the ride height. I scrub frame before I get stuck.

@GamePyro well ya but if you buy a chevy z71 then you can put it in 4 wd low and it locks all of the wheels automatically so you can do all that crazy stuff and then if you do put lockers and a lift on it you will have a badass truck

Two things. First, only idiots buy 2WD trucks. Second, Ford offers in it's F-150 an electronic locking differential, not the ancient G80 Detroit Locker you see here on the Chevy. I owned both and let me tell you the F-150's electronic system is far, far superior. No wheel spin and no drama.

yes the e locker may have its advantages...but thisone seems a bit more user friendly in that it is AUTOMATIC....................GM was first with LOCKERS bub...ford just came up the rear......nothing agianst fordd though

@YoungerPrice explain how the ford is a piece of shit? cause they put a locker in the silverado. if they put a locker in the f15 and ram it would do the same but even better. chevy makes the worst line of trucks. look at sales and reviews from the past 20 years .
skaterboy520c 1 year ago
@skaterboy520c even if the f150 and the ram put in the locker i would still say they are a piece of shit because they copied off of GM which wont happen because its patent by GM so the only way is for the owner to do it.Which requires ALOT of mechanical experience

Type in how a eaton g80 works, for another vid on this, but they have too many small parts, as you can see in the other vid, thats why they are prone to exploding, hence the nickname GOV-BOMB. I have vids of my aussie(not an ARB) lunchbox at work in my jeep. Its locked all the time, except in turns. As you can see in this vid, the gov bomb has to be "spun up' creating massive shockloads on the swiss watch style internal parts, and hampering the reliability of this particular unit.
