Re: [Az-Geocaching] Diff Lockers

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.

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.
