I seem to recall dozens and dozens of emails going out to the OX guys, as far as I know, I am the only IFS isuzu with an Ox locker... interest fell apart after I got mine installed.

It becomes hard to suss out the true reason behind low market -- for instance, in this case, is it that Isuzu owners are cheap, or that other solutions exist that are more attractive? Tough to say -- and please don't hear that as a slam to Ox. I've met their staff at SEMA, and watched them handle a staffer's issues with his Ox in a straight-forward, above-board professional fashion -- IMHO, they handled some of the initial bugs that they had with a handful of lockers by responding well with support and improving the designe for ALL of their lockers (not just the few with problems).

Back to discussing what I'd like to see vendors produce... a hydraulic-assist kit (hoses, cooler, steering box, ram, and brackets) for an Isuzu would be quite nice, and would probably generalize nicely across most Isuzus with the standard center-link, with only minimal mods required to fit an SAS that uses the Isuzu steering box.

It would also be cool to come up with a somewhat affordable means of fitting locking hubs to late-model Rodeos that use the splined-and-nutted CV. This could get costly fast, tho.
