Well, keep in mind this is a locker that you can install in your garage in a day. Nothing against ARB, but they are not one that I am willing to install myself, and they cost twice as much to begin with. There are pros and cons to both, but this is a great opportunity for us to get Isuzu back on the forefront of parts with a well known company.

Getting the Wheeling Fever
I'm new to this forum but a long time offroader and Isuzu enthusiast. I have been searching for lockers for my Amigo for some time now. Would love to see a deal worked out for both the 12 and 10 bolt. I'll take one of each. We need to make this happen!!

Great, tell all of your Isuzu friends about this and we can get enough interest to make it happen.

I tucked a couple of associated threads out of sight for temporary storage.

The discussion about lockers isn't quite ready for this level of commitment -- I have been in regular contact with Matt, and though good news is near, he has some paperwork and details to finalize first.

Please hang in there and stay excited about this project!

don`t know if this has been considered yet, but has any one with some pull, namely matt @ indy or likewise checked into TORQ MASTERS. from their website on contact us section, they seem like an approachable company that we might be able to get interested into producing some lockers for us. just a thought!

Torque masters makes the Aussie Locker that I have mentioned a few times earlier in this thread. I think that Powertrax is the better option for several different reasons. The main reason being that they already have manufactered a locker for one of our Axles, so they just have to get enough committment to make a production run of those lockers and we can have the 10 bolt. Then once we show that we are for real, we can possibly get them to make the 12 bolt lockers (possibly 2 versions) for our rear axles.

Keep the momentum going and keep telling all of your 10 and 12 bolt isuzu friends about this thread.

not sure how many more ways i can say this.... <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" /> I am working with Richmond Gear/Powertrax to produce these lockers.

the 10 bolt looks really promising......still do not have solid #'s or delivery dates from Powertrax, so that is why i have not escallated this to the Deposit level.

on the 12 bolt......that also looks very promising, and they have requested a rear 3rd member from me..........which i should be able to send to them this week. that pushes that item along 1 more step. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

this stuff just takes time, we are bringing new products to market here.

this is for real people................speak up if you are interested and let's make it happen.

gotta let me do my job <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" />
