I just recieved my Dec 2002 issue of Peterson's Off Road and there is an article about a new type of selectable locker that competes with the ARB, Eaton, and OX. Its from Germany and its just now being sold in the US since the company started selling it out of Southern Cal.
THEY MAKE ONE FOR EXPLORERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! FRONT AND REAR!!!!!!!!
Peterson's raves about this sucker. This new locker uses a vaccuum acuator to lock and unlock. The accuator is built into the rear differential cover that comes with it and uses a shift fork, much like the OX locker, to lock. Its also strong as hell, since its CNC machined and it uses 8 steel pins to lock, which means you would have to shear 8 steel pins to break the sucker. Anyway, I could go on, but the website for it is www.killeraxles.com. I recommend getting the magazine and reading more about it. What are everyones opinions of this? Oh, the price, cheaper than ARB (after compressor), Eaton, and OX....$689
