E-locker installation shops?
I was wondering who everyone thinks are the most reputable shops for installing an e-locker into a normal 3rd gen 4Runner rear axle. I live in Colorado and would like it to be done the right way. Willing to travel to neighboring states if need be. Thanks for your info.

I know there are shops around. I was looking for first hand knowledge of craftsmanship and attitude with the different shops. Also, what the average cost is for the retrofit (with and without the price of the e-locker diff 4.10 gears). Thanks for the list though Crux.

I had mine done at Slee, before I learned how to do it myself. Robbie did the actual work on the housing and did a great job. Robbie is no longer there, he got a dream job working for Toyota taking the new FJ cruiser around and wheeling it at different events (Lucky bastid). Even though he's gone I haven't hear anything bad coming out of Slee's shop. Can't give you an actual price 'cuz they cut me a deal if I did the grunt work.
Oleg at Alatao Auto in Aurora does great work an very reasonable prices. He has the pride in workmanship and an ethic that's hard to come by these days.
I don't have his # right here but I'll find it and post up latter.

I went to ORS last year and had no issues at all with his work. They did a fine job and I have no regrets. Mike was willing to do the e-locker swap if I could find a doner, so perhaps it indicates that he's more interested in flexing to people's plans. I know he wasn't real thrilled about putting an e-locker inside my current pumpkin, due to the re-shaping work I think, so a donor would be the way to go.

Just reread your 1st post. If its going into a 3rd gen definitely give Oleg a call. He *will* find you a 3rd gen axle housing (and locker if need) He might even have one on hand.
Might PM Mojo_Risin about his experiences with ORS too. https://www.yotatech.com/forums/members/713.html
