Or you can come up on the driveway and have nice
glass ice tea.
The only time Lock-Rights get difficult is when the
crosspin is blocked by the ring gear, as mine in my 4.10 D44 was. Then you
have to pull the whole carrier, remove the ring gear, remove the cross pin,
remove the spider gears, install the locker, and reassemble. If the
crosspin will come out past the ring gear, then the whole thing can stay
installed and the crosspin comes out, spider gears come out, and locker goes
in.
A pic of the blocked crosspin is photo# 6 of the
gallery I linked. The round thing in the center is the crosspin.
(Dirk.)
I have air tools (and I'm not afraid to use them)
jackstands, and all the stuff to do the job.
With all due respect to average mechanical ability,
30 minutes or an hour is a bit optimistic. You'll have to remove the
wheels, brake drums, axles (I think D35s are C-Clip axles), and then determine
if the crosspin will come out.

Just goes to show,
this boy can buy a 4x4.. drive a 4x4.. and have no clue what yall just
said..
"Golly, Sgt. Carter,
surprize, surprize. I thought them things just works likes they do when ya
buys them"
I have come to the
conclusion I will have to cammo up and go monitor the homestead of the TDP
crew.. "Now where did I put that telescope and video
camera"?
Decisions decisions. I really want these
on, and the guy I'm buying the Dana35 kit from even tells me that it would
take no more than an hour per diff to slam it out if you had NO CLUE what you
were doing. A vague mechanical ability could do it in 30, according to
him. Sooooo, I'll let you know in a couple days what's going to
happen. If it could be EARLY Monday morning (I'm off work at 0630), I'd
drive down after work before a lunch appointment in west Phoenix. I'd
love to hang out for a few hours with you folks.

Jalene pointed out to me that my reply to this
topic didn't really convey what I was trying to say. What I really
meant to say was:
"Bring that thing on down here and we will slam
that Lock-Right in it on my drive way in a couple hours while the
wimmen go shopping or caching or make us food or something. It will be
a slam dunk, my brotha."
That's what I really meant. Sunday or
Monday are good days.
To prove I can really do a Lock-Rite:

Who out there has any experience installing
diff lockers on a Jeep? I have the Lock Right Dana 30 and will be
buying the Dana 35 kit here in a day or so and REALLY want to get them
installed. If I'm going to be going to the Prescott event, my
mechanic connection isn't going to work, as that's his only Saturday off
before I leave.
