Back to School: Locker Options

JohnJohn · Aug 23, 2004

Should I use a shelf this year or just let all my books & peeche folders fall to the bottom of the locker?

SERIOUSLY: I just got done rolling the old '88s axles under and lifting the new '98. I got to admit I and very excited about this rig.

I have D30 with hub conversion and D44 rear, 4.56 gears, hack&tapped 231. I want to be able to tow my 2000lb pop-up trailer with it.

So WHAT LOCKERS do I use?
1) ARBs front and rear
2) OX lockers front and rear
3) Easy Locker in the front with OX, ARB or E-Locker in the rear
4) run it open with a heavy pedal :twak:

Any other serious options that I missed?

if you got the money use arb's if not use a powertrax or aussie up front and a slectible in the back some people have auto's front and rear and like some people dont like the tire chirp

Why don't you go into the store room and throw a dart.

What color dart should I use?
1) burgundy (OU)
2) yellow (CU)
3) orange (Texas)
4) red (Nebraska)

I can't crap with out help from this forum!

I would go back to Easy Lockers, but I think towing the camper WITHOUT a selectable is just asking for trouble. Sure do WISH there was and E-locker for the D30.

Um, OU would be crimson, and it would probably hit the best locker in there.

For towing that camper, a selectable would be the best choice. Probably the ARBs.

Looked at the T-locker? I'm either going to run the T's or ARB's, and I'm lenaing towards the T's just for something different.

Where can I get some info on the "t's"? Thanks

I think you should use BB lockers. What you do is take out the little plug on the diff and put in about 8 or 10 ball bearings. Your diffs will be locked before you know it.:looney:

EXCEPT for the red and yellow one...
That would be the National Champion USC dart!

WOW. I'm in. Can't find prices on the KillerAxles site. Can't find anything on the Tera site. I will call them tomorrow. Thanks for the links!

Thanks,

Do I need a specific color, or would any color work

My vote would be for the ARB, if you have the coin for it.

Thanks,

jj,

when i called tera a couple of months ago (after hearing rumors) i was told they would be ~$1,000 each (D30 and D44) once released...

hopefully they're more realistic w/ the pricing now. (needless to say i went w/ ARBs)

Thanks Terry. I am going with the t-Locker. I found it for much less than $1000, $700 a locker, local, so no shipping.
