i got that CB issue fixed... broke the antenna in half and had to redo some stuff. Had a bad ground for the antenna, it was picking up noise.

ok Update : 1 month of fun.
Ok my locker has been installed and driven about 2000 miles or so. In rain, snow, mud
. and anything else i could find. Right now i am at home in Michigan. driving on the snow is not an issue with thise locker. All my buddy's didnt believe i had a locker till i engaged it and crawled up the mound of snow in Meijers parking lot.
High Speed Driving. A couple of times on the trip to michigan i found myself doing 80-85 on my speedo (which with 33's and 4.56's is way off) no issues at all. No vibrations nothin. Which I got the vibration i did have solved (lost a weight off the wheel and didnt know it).
Conclusion : I love it. I will buy another Locker from Bill Cole and Offroadlockers.com (and a site sponser). Most Likely in feb or march for the rear of my x.
Any Questions on this. let me know.

- 1999 Mountaineer
I needed to resurrect this thread. I have a chance to get a front and rear locker for my 1999 Mountaineer, which states I have a 1998 to 1998 1/2 front end. The guy is going to sell me the whole axles with the lockers installed. I was wondering what I would have to look at on the front diffs to make sure they will work for me.
I am thinking I will have little trouble with the rear, as we both have 8.8 Ford rear ends. But these lockers came out of a 1996? or was it 1994?
Anyways what years did they switch the front rear ends to the second generation?
Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated as always.
