: Need a Locker, Whats the best Kind? Sarcastro 02-05-2002, 10:23 AM Ok, Ill Admit it, I'm Cheap... I want to know what is the best lockrite? or Detriot... and more importantly, why... does anyone have a used locker that could buy.. I know that they are not neccearrily expenive but the cheaper the better right? thx:flipoff2: :flipoff2: :flipoff2: :flipoff2: :flipoff2: 86zuki 02-05-2002, 10:48 AM I have the detroit E-Z locker in mine and haven't had any problems with it. they are basically the same thing as a lockright. the only difference that I know of is one of them uses a biased spring and the other uses two springs. I have buddies that run the lockright and they really haven't had any trouble yet either though. I would go with which ever is cheaper.:D okcrawler 02-05-2002, 10:52 AM I've heard that the Lockright clacker is better than the Detroit clacker. I ran a Detroit for about a year and proved it was stronger than the axle shafts :). The Lockrights I've seen for the D30 I liked better because they use double springs where my Sami Detroit only used a single. That should help it unlock... I would recommend you get the cross pins (they call it a Side Gear coupler, or something stupid like that), I believe it was an extra $60. The Sami pins are designed for a rotating spider gear and not for the high compression force of the clacker design. Oh, and get yourself a good stereo. So you can drown out.... . . clack....clack....clack....clack....clack.....clac k.....clack.....clack....clack....clack....clack.. ..POP....clack....clack....

But mine are in Toy axles, so YMMV. poppycock 02-05-2002, 01:53 PM if your cheap and you said you were. why not just weld it? costs about $0.56 in wire :D slozook 02-05-2002, 02:35 PM personally, i prefer powertrax lock rights over anything.. moto261 02-05-2002, 02:41 PM weld it Dan:massey: Sarcastro 02-05-2002, 02:42 PM so which one has the caps and which has the spring in a spring?!!!:mad3: :nuke: billjohn 02-05-2002, 03:54 PM Lockright has the spring/spring EZ Locker has the caps Sarcastro 02-05-2002, 03:57 PM Great thanks Bill!
