Have an 89 runner on 35s. strictly mud/sand use. any suggestions on a rear locker. realiability, affordability, easy install. thanks

look into the aussie locker... for all out strength a detroit locker will outlast any other axle part, but the lunchbox lockers are an easy drop in install.... the detroit is a full carrier replacemetn and requires the gears be re-set up.....

if its jsut an offroad rig, you might want too look into a min or full spool (but again will need gears setup) or a lunchbox locker liek the aussie locker or similar for the easiest installs

thanks alot for the input. whats a mini spool/spool?

getitdone

It locks the axles togther alowing nothing to turn at different speeds. It is also the cheapest because it is a simple hunk of metal.(no turning parts)

I would be cautious with mini spools. From what I have heard they are very weak and break easily. There are 2 kinds of people with mini-spools, those who have broken them, and those who will. Do a search on pirate4x4 about them, youll see.

I got a Detroit EZ-Locker, it only cost about $220, and it was super easy to install (hence the name I assume). I would highly recommend it it has worked perfectly in all situations for me.
