I just recently installed installing a Detroit True-Trac in my Silverado and The engagement feels somewhat choppy and just not as smooth as I think it should be. Fluid level is correct and everything was double checked. Not sure if this is normal or not. Any input would be very helpful.

 

What do you mean by the engagement?

 

It's definitely a tru-trac not a detroit locker?

 

Hmm I never felt anything with my trutrac. Are you sure you didn't get a locker unit?

 

also iirc your not supposed to use syn gear oil, just regular(somebody correct me if im wrong on that, thought i rem reading it somewhere). so that might be your issue??

 

yep, your suppose to use regular gear oil.

I just put one in yesterday. given it 100 miles before trying to lock it up though, because I put new ring and pinion in.

I put about 600 miles b4 i played with mine. It feels like stock except for when I turn slowly I get a few chirps due to my pos tires. Not sure what oil I put in but it ws exactly was AxisT6 said to put in there. After first 100 miles I flushed it.
