And will it be ok to lock it or is something bad going to happen. I am thinking aussie lockers. But any suggestion are welcome Re: Lockers [Re: thunder72] #868446 02/11/08 07:51 PM Joined: Oct 2003 Posts: 7,768 Central Texas BigJim Web Wheeler Best locker if mud bogging would be a SPOOL. If on an icy hiway..NO LOCKER would be best.. So what needs to be splained here is what are we going to do with this vehicle and when would we need a locker?

Your offroad driving skill will be the determining factor almost all the time as to whether or not you snap an axle. Just carry an extra set of axleshafts for the D35 when your four wheeling and a few tools and gear oil (and something to catch the old gear oil). Normally its the axleshaft that breaks: just hope the differential doesn't get messed up when it does snap. It's an easy job to replace an axleshaft. The important thing is to get out all of the broken axleshaft pieces. 94 YJ, SOA, 2-1/2 Alcans, ARB-front, Detroit-Rear, 4.56:1 gears, Oasis Trailhead compressor, 4:1 Terra Lo, 37x12.50x15 SSR's, 8000 lb Ramsey, & etc. Re: Lockers [Re: thunder72] #868449 02/12/08 02:15 AM Joined: Jan 2007 Posts: 534 Wilmington, NC DBL_DTY97TJ Rock Warrior See my reply to "rear ends". <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" /> 97tj, Shaved Ford 9 rear, 4:10's, New 35x12.5 BFG KM2's to test!, Warn x8000i, ARB's, Quick Disco's, Hand Throttle, & it's my DD.
