lock right locker???

I was wondering if anyone on here had a lock right automatic locker installed and if so where did you buy it. I have been looking online and couldn't find anyone that carried them. Thanks for the help.

Are you serious?
You've never once picked up a 4x4 mag (any 4x4 mag) and seen ads for locking differentials next to the tire, wheel, shock and lift kit ads?
Any place that sells these items is bound to sell lock rite lockers as they are inexpensive and very popular. Also check out your local 4x4 shops in the area as they will be more than happy to sell one to you. You can ask your friends about shops in the area or maybe even use a phone book.
You might also try goggling "lockrite". And if that fails try searching for "lockrite" in this forum's excellent search feature. You will find the search button towards the top of the page.

Powertrax/Lockrite

Call or email them & ask; I think they sell them direct or you could get one from any number of off-road places & they also have a dealer locater on their site.

just be warned buying from porc, they have good prices and all but dont be surprised if it takes them a few times to send you all the right stuff, i hear its better if you call in your order rather than buying online, but it took them like 6 times to get everything last time we bought from them.

That's good to know since I was considering getting my ARB's from them. No wonder they took the phone number off their site. Edit:scratch that, it's back up there now. It just wasn't there when I looked a couple days ago must've been a glitch.

Porc messed up one order and one order only and the guy just won't let it die. :rolleyes:

I never completely bash a retailer unless I see where they screwed up a bunch of other orders then I took a chance anyway and they got me too. Every single retailer in the world has a customer slip through the cracks every once in a while. Give them a break...

I bought mine from PORC and they had it to my door in 3 days and their price was second to none.

They have a thread over at Pirate 4x4 with a few thousand posts in it in the vendor section. I suggest anyone questioning them should go look through that for bad posts until they get tired of searching. They are a great company to deal with.

To make it easier for you I went and dug up the link. See how many of the 2000+ posts in it are bad...

http://www.pirate4x4.com/forum/showthread.php?t=221897

Just a note, I'm not affiliated with them in any way. They have a great reputation and I just hate to see it smeared over and over again by one person for no reason. They're awesome.

Whats wrong with E-Bay $212 Lock Rite

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Lockr...QQcmdZViewItem

Here are some other alternatives from E-Bay for $199 and $20 shipping.

I called and talked to them direct. Got my locker in about a week. No funny buisness.

I don't understand why they get such a hard time. They recomend you call in your order, so do that!

I bought one off a member of TTORA pretty cheap but wish I'd have bought an LSD b/c of all of the street driving I do. I don't have the truck anymore but next time it's either LSD or if I have the $ an ARB.

My truck is 95% street driven. The locker never really gives me any trouble. I guess it depends on peoples driving habbits and the install of the locker.
