Anybody familiar with the Aussie Locker? https://offroadlockers.com/trucks.html
They're one of the banner advertisers here.

Sounds like a Powertrax No-Slip, priced like a Lock-Right. Just curious...

I think it is more similar to the tractech ez-locker than the no-slip. Also it doesn't look like they offer it for the rear of the T.

Both the ez-locker and the aussie are priced very close. I went with the ez-locker and I am very pleased with it so far.

If you are looking for a rear locker the lock-right, no-slip, and arb are good choices. Also tractech has recently released the detroit locker and truetrac for our rear axle.

Ryan,

I don't know anything about it, but in the Adobe file there is a part number for a T100 rear application.

There was huge thread on the Aussie Locker, including several posts from the manufacturer, over on Pirate 4x4. I can't seem to get on their site tonight to find a link.

The reviews were very positive. It seems to build on the popular Lincoln locker platform with a few improvements. I'm definitely going with one for the rear of my '85 pickup by this summer - <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

Eh? Thats just a welded rear. IIRC they were comparing it to a LockRite/NoSlip with some integrity.

Sorry, I meant the Detroit, not the Lincoln. I must have been posting past my bedtime <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Here's a link to a review of the product and installation - Aussie Locker review

I still can't log on to the Pirate forums to find that thread with comments from Bill Cole, the US distributor. But it's there for anyone who wants to go over there and search for it -

That fatigue will get you every time. I remember comparisons to Detroit, too, maybe more than Powertrax, now that you mention it. My excuse it it's too early. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" />

<img src="/forums/images/graemlins/drunk.gif" alt="" /> Hmm, I missed the pdf the first time.

Also after reading the review on pirate it definatly is very similar to the ez-locker (if not identical).

Ryan,

You using Firefox? I had to go back and grab IE to open the site for some reason.
