Front E-Locker now available

[VMN]

3.7 below.. so it will fit most will edit first post (unless you have regeared with a prado center to 3.9)
Head spinning

Or a Prado 4.1 like me

[Hilux Max]

You'll find that the new prado 150 and FJ cruiser also have the 3.73:1 ratio diffs making the 3.7:1 locker much more popular and prevalent.

Its good to finally see some more competition on the market...competition always benefits the consumer.

Only thing Id love to see is the clamping force comparison between the E-locker and ARB Locker....from my understanding the ARB locker has a very high clamping force...if the Eaton product can match it then they are on a good wicket.

So now im looking for a "Fitting Kit" ...seals and bearings... like for the rear
Anyone got any idea's im worried its Toyota only
Makes it hard to do in a day going to the Bearing shop with the old ones in hand and measuring them...

max, there was a very good comparo in a recent 4WD Action mag that road tested and then destructively tested all comers. Eaton fared very well.

Does anyone have a specefic part number for the Elocker front and rear? Rocket55 (Rod)?

Does anyone have a specefic part number for the Elocker front and rear? Rocket55 (Rod)?

Part number Front 3.73 down Ratio is
99-ELKR 10 994


Rear
99-ELKR 10 9334
Thou O.L may be something like EL 9334.... but the above is the Harrop numbers

I order'd a front one today

[helmut79]

Thanks Mate.

Thinking of looking in the states for one seems to be a better deal than $1,550 that OL want.

Was going to contact Harrop too to see what deal we could do on a group buy

Just checked Mick and there are no part numbers on the invoice, so I am of little help

[Dluxv6]

Mick
no good looking in the states as theses are remade for local cars from an imported product as to why its called a Eaton Harrop E-locker
Eaton USA - the manufacturer of unit
Harrop Melb - bought the Aussie rights and re-engineered to suit local market

[helmut79]

Thanks Drew, have found that out over the last couple of days

[asmo]

Picked it up (in box) and looks good
Also store said they recieved the new parts listings,,, and on it was one for Ratio 3.73 up so maybe ready sooner than later
Will do a "whats in the box" soon

Will do a "whats in the box" soon

Rang up couple of places about the E-Locker today, and not too many people sell them expect for Opposite Lock...

But the best i could do for front and rear, supply and fitted was $4000!
How does that price compare to what others what gotten?

[Hilux Max]

strewth.......4g's.....how much if you remove the front and rear centres and drop it off to them to fit?

surely gotta save you a few clams doing that?

Before i purchased i called every O.L store in W.A near Perth.
All but 1 removed front as a unit and got a diff shop to fit then they replace unit.
$4 g's about it. rear is easy... maybe 1800 ish ?? but yeah 2200 if about it for the front.

Reading the W/Shop manual its a PITA to fit and measure up etc as you do the back lash through the drain plug hole

I will be removing diff dropping off myself and then refitting as a whole to save a bit.

Good to see everyone is now trying these
As i was the first guinea pig
rear locker is still going fantastic no dramas in any respect

the only thing i would change (hindsight is a good thing not) is put E-locker in front (not avail back then) and run a detroit in the rear
i so miss having a LSD in the rear , but then again with detroit in the rear the missus wouold shit herself everytime you come outa a roundabout

Jack, I've been quoted $1,500 for the unit and $550 install on the front and $350 for the rear.

Cannot find the units better than $1,500, Harrop must be tight on the wholesale price.

[danmcccc]

After showing my mate how my locker works on the bitumen and turning out of his street, i wouldnt want a detroit in the rear haha i struggled to hold the wheel, lets put it that way...

[ultimate]

I should have some pricing through in the next couple of weeks for some export orders. Maybe we can squeeze in a group buy
