A mate has been looking at OX lockers for his Jeep TJ. Having looked into them myself, they sound a good option. Are there similiar lockers avail for LR Axles?
nice actuating levers - but Ive got Vacuum operated lockers and cables seem like a step backwards

I have 3.54 metric detroit locker and truetrac in the lightweight, to go to 4.7 ring and pinion I need a spacer for the crownwheel, I can use either the metric diff housing or the old 4.7 housing, 1981 as far as I am aware.
If I use the old housing I will need bearing sleeves for the diff centre, I think.
If I use the new housing will the pinion bearings fit?
Thanks hope this makes sense.

I like cable me. Give it a tug and its in or out... Admit its a little backerds in tech but i like......Just something about knowin that there is no other parts other than a cable between you and that locker.
Saying that, Maxi Drive is what i have been looking at.......For my sissy LR axles!

Yes, they are nice levers, I've got a couple in my garage!
I like the simplicity & feel of cables.

Yes, that'll be it. Blame him.

Nope, I'm indulging in my 'other hobby'.
I'll probably pop up in a couple of weeks though. Make sure there is something exciting for me to look at.

Surely the mere sight of a vehicle build actually progressing will be more than enough excitement?
Or did you mean the Finnish hardcore literature collection?
