Air lockers

 

Don't be a bish David

 

The first gens only had it in some trucks... not sure what model... think Craig knows

 

do you have a sport?

I just cant really have my truck down for more than a day. I dont feel like my mechanical abilities are high enough for the front diff

 

thats kind of why for this mod, Id rather pay someone. And get a warranty

 

but like you said.. pain in the ass haha

 

I think it was @HolyHandGrenade

 

I have a 4 banger sr5 just buy once cry once... might as well gear and lock at the same damn time

You have a motorcycle... and warranty is wether you install or he does. Don't matter... if you run tires bigger than 35s though it voids it apparently according to Ant

 

It wasn't me. I swapped my front diff when I re-geared, but no reason to drop the rack in a second gen to swap front diff. I believe it was @Sub-Zero who was doing something for someone on a first gen?

 

No lockers then?

 

I have the rear. Not sure if I want a front.. yet. It will be more

 

Honestly, if I had it to do over again, I'd save the $800 whatever and skip the front locker most likely. BUT, if you do ever want it, the time to do it is when you re-gear.

 

ahh! see @The Hunter ?!

 

what about a manual conversion for the rear locker? worth it?

 

I'm not familiar with that. I have a Sport, so ARB was the only option for me (I installed a mechanical locker first. That got old QUICK...). I would eliminate any electric actuators that I could though. Driving through that RC poop water on a regular basis will kill them for sure.

IE:



When my ADD actuator dies, and it will, I'm getting rid of that too.

Wow... that's spendy. I'd still do it though if I had an E-locker. It's your only option for eliminating the electric actuator. There's no air locker for the 8", correct?

 

Air locker for the 8" ? like a replacement for the e-locker ?

 

Yeah, I don't think it exists though. I like that cable deal. The shifter mechanism is huge though. Where TF would you put it?

 

maybe next to the center console? or in the pen holder section?

is this what you are talking about? I dont know anything about the splines
