$1750 installed although i cut the cost a little by doing the wiring myself (to easy even for DIY mechanic)
price was comparable with ARB locker but now i have something different
tried it at home , locks straight away no noise( just press a button and presto locked rear end ) :D :D :D :D
gotta love that 8-) 8-) 8-)
Cheers Drew

Guys
few pics of install gear associated with e locker
wish i had some of the carrier to show but forgot to take before it was installed
piccies are of rear locker wire exiting the diff
in cab push button illuminated switch, mounted it here as its in full view of me and can see if the rear is engaged or not
tag plate that will not fit so am getting one made to suit so the minister of finances doesn't accidentally switch on diff lock on the road
Got the lux crossed up in big ditch yesterday and going no where in either two or four wheel drive , pressed the button and drove straight out no issues
gotta love it 8-) 8-) 8-)

Sticky granted Drew. 8-) 8-)
Just a question mate.
With the E locker did they replace the whole carrier or use the original one and fitted the lock inside?
Cheers
Mark

Thats interesting that the whole carrier was replaced...should make for a stronger unit...I ws under the presumption that the elocker only fitted inside the standard carrier.....
