That is what it looks like. Dumb, but the order guide has it that way.

TruTrack doesn't care what gears are on it, so why would they offer it on stock 3.73 rear end but not on the Max Tow with 4.10s. Unless, no TruTrack available yet for the Super Duper D44
Due to the thickness of the ring gear, different size carriers (the TruTrack is a carrier) are sometimes required depending on which ratio gears are to be installed.

For example, in the old D44, there were 2 different size carriers -- all gears 3.73 and smaller used the smaller size carrier, while all gears numerically higher than 3.73 (like 4.10) used the larger size carrier. One housing, two different size ring gear carriers.

You can't order both the "Anti-Spin" option and "Max Tow" option because the Anti-spin is ALREADY INCLUDED with the MaxTow. So basically, the configurator is just preventing you from ordering the anti-spin TWICE.

From the online configurator for 2021 Gladiator Sport:

When I special ordered my truck from the dealer, there was an option that was a checkbox for the anti-spin that seemed like an option.

It *is* a stand-alone option, but that option is already included with the MaxTow package, according to Jeep, so there is no need to order it "twice".

Is this unchanged from the 2020 Max Tow because I don't see Trac Loc anywhere on my build sheet when I run my VIN.

If I'm not mistaken, this is new for the 2021 models. It wasn't available on the 2020.

I'm pretty sure that every time I tried adding the TracLoc option when I had the Max Tow option selected it would remove the Max Tow option on the online builder last year (2020) in May/June. Doesn't matter anymore, for me at least. I've got the max tow with no TracLoc and it's not the end of the world. That online builder seems to change from week to week, must depends on what's available and/or different market.

Weird. Mine was ordered around that time and I was able to add it.
You could always add it from a transmission shop.

The list of items included in the Max Tow package was limited in all early build 2020's. Track-Lok was added to Max Tow part way through the 2020 cycle and now the whole 2021 cycle. The image snipped above from the build site is correct. Also, all Glads get the HD Dana 44's. Only the Rubicon and Max Tow get the Wide Track HD Dana 44s - 1.5" wider.
Source: I shopped the frack out of Max Tow originally, before settling with an Overland in the correct color.
