i got my locker today that i've been waiting on forever it seems!!!

 

SWEET!!, i want one for my front....i think im just gonna go welded rear after much deliberation and reading

 

Your gonna love it. They have their quirks, but I really like the way they perform.

 

Only one?! LAME!

Jk. Lockers are the best you will love it

 

haha i know i know but hey part time and summer school don't add up to a lot of $$$. still some smaller things i need to take care of too.

 

You'll like it. Congrats.

 

I have worked so much lately I said screw it and am taking a vacation day today. Call me if you need/want an extra set of hands. I'll help ya throw it in.

 

Niiice. You will love the locked life

 

i have the same one.. best thing I ever did for myself and my truck

 

Agreed...lockers are fun! Easy to install too!

 

Is it really worth it to use one of these? The only time it is not locked is when you are off the gas. Might as well weld it?

So what did you pay?

 

yeah its worth it, specially the first time you lift a wheel on somethin stupid and ur truck just pudders there....kinda pisses you off, and ive read lots of weld it or not weld it threads and ive decided to weld it, only downfall is quicker ware on the tires and you have to relearn how to not goose it around courners

 

not true. You would have to actually have one to know how it behaves.

You can find all you need to know riight there

 

Im sorry but thats false. I hate how people comment on autolocker drivability issues when they don't even have one.

I have been dd'ing my truck (with lockright) for almost 2 years. Its noticable, but its certainly liveable and MUCH nicer than a welded rear. You need to learn how to drive with the locker. You will learn the perfect throttle posistion to power through corners without locking up the rear end.. and so on..

 

Man I need to find someone down here with one and drive it before I go and buy one. I really just want to get selactable cuz I dont want ta have to worry about the driving characteristics at all.

 

Not even close. When cornering and gassing it, the inside tire slips if its given full throttle in low gear. Read the link to the Aussie locker review in my sig line.

 

Check out the question marks dude.

I ask because I am thinking of getting one but said to myself
"self (I knew it was me because I recognized the voice) you should put a lunchbox in there"
but then I said
"maybe save some money and just weld it because they are designed to lock under load which is most of the time"
I was interested in what made 88clev4runner decide to go this route. I DD my truck most of the time but I do need a lock axel sometimes when I am at my camp pulling firewood through mud holes.

After reading on the Aussie site I am back leaning towards a lunchbox over weld. Way to go guys

 

ive been pleased with mine so far. ddin my truck with 5.29's and aussie in the rear.

when i get the money for longs, ill throw an aussie in the front as well.

 

i am sorry but i got so sick of waiting for my aussie that i canceled and got a lockright. i have never seen a company so slow as aussie. after three months they couldn't get me my order???? lockright is in and i love it.
