slightly dearer by about $100 over a locker but you have to buy compressor
wires enter diff at top thru a compression grommet so no issues with water that i can see
Shane
always the issue when you get a bit of good gear is then work mounts up so to your quiz
no i havent used per say in the bush but had a play on construction site to see what is like
so far so good
love it
push button locker
will post when i get out to use it
Cheers Dluxv6

Hopefully you can give the e locker a good work out on the aussie day trip to coffs. I've been eagerly awaiting your feedback on it. Hopefully you can get it under water at some stage aswell to see how it holds up
that is my biggest concern for ya, hopefully it's as watertight as a frogs @ss

where abouts are you on the Goldy , have you been spotted yet ?
warranty will fix it if there is an issue .
been way to busy to get out seems everyone wants electrical work done before xmas
had a couple small outings and all good but am looking forward to really giving a work out
coffs may be a short trip as i have a huge house (electrical)to finish that week as the owners are moving in Australia day
see what eventuates, am looking forward to getting away although will be in canberra over chrissy so i may make a trip out to the brindabellas as it's one of my favs for 4wd and riding
Cheers Drew

Drew that sounds very boring. you've got nothing to prove that you didn't have a problem. Are you sure you didn't blow a seal???????? or blow oil back out the end of the lines??

Can someone please supply me the part numbers for the rear locking diff, spoke to Harrop and they said only the front is available...they knew nothing about the rear.

Strange. Last time I talked to Opposite Lock, they thought the rear was available (as they had ftted a couple) and the front wasn't but when they looked in their catalog, there was a new listing for the Front as well!
I bet it is listed for a 2005+ and you told them you have a 2007 or something like that
