I've been wanting to get an assie type locker for the front of my heep. I'm going to be pulling the axle apart to replace the seals, I thoght what a perfect time for a locker. Now I plan on going 4.56 in the future and I know I will need a new carrier. If I put a locker in now will I be able to run it with the new carrier? Or should i wait?

It depends on what style locker you get.

An ARB for example, is a carrier replacement.

A lunchbox locker (aussie, Loc-Right...) just replaces the spider and side gears, and will work with either size open carrier.

why go through the hassle twice? Wait and do both at the same time.

Because he is going to have the shafts and everything pulled apart already, one a few more things to install the locker.

I would say yes, install the locker now, and then just transfer it over when you do the regear.

i'm with mark. it's only a few extra steps and the aussie will transfer from the old carrier (3.73 and down) to the new one (4.10 and up)

Look through our venders here on site. They support our group and give us price breaks and we support them by buying their stuff! Personally, I dunno, bought my junk before I joined.
