OK I'll have to get a set. I have been thinking about getting some. So what will brake after you put lockers in? I allready replaced the 2 piece rear axle.New beefer drive shafts, Took the T5 trany out and put a Muncie 3 speed. M,O,R,E bomb proof moter mounts.Thay just would not hold up to the V8 304. Are a lot of the mebers running locker? I tow a Small boat sometimes and thats what started all the up grades.First the 2 pice axles. then the drive shaft. Then the trany 3 times. So I replaced it with the muncie. What do yall think about the OX Lockers?  Just kinda like to know what to expect.If theres any one that has had a older Cj that can help? I don't want to go so fare as to start cutting the fenders or anything like that.

Thanks Mike

What did he bust?

It was hard watchin the 1st 2 Jeeps trying to crush the cop car without lockers.  They pushed the car around rather than climb it.

Dose Locker take a lot of the fun away? It wood seem to me that it makes verything easy.I like a challenge. Sometimes I have to pull the winch out.

Lockers allow you to run better and way more fun trails plus I think it is safer. You have more control.

Please stop, now thats another 300-400 bucks ill have to shell out.   Dam  guys.    {popcorn}

LOL really, if you're running a JK, Lockers are "technically" not really necessesary. When the Trac Ctrl is off and/or in 4 Low, the ECM recognizes when 1 wheel is free spinning, and the other is sitting still, it will apply brake to get the still one going. This is essentually what a locker does. I run open / open and have no issues at all with the wheels turning when I need them to.

BTW, Dawn has over 100 pics, and a few videos posted to her Face Book. (I don't want to post here as there are so many) A few Bobby have already shared here.

Anyway, everyone please feel free to see the album on either hers or my FB.
