rear locker - Pirate4x4.Com : 4x4 and Off-Road Forum

ploc68 · 01-13-2004, 08:23 AM

I'm am looking for a rear locker for my Isuzu pickup. it's an '88, with the 2.3L and it's 2wd. the part number through randy's ring and pinion was for a lock-right locker #3111. I may have found one on Rubicon4x4.com but they want $300+ for it. I was wondering if anyone had a used locker or mini spool lying around. I don't want to weld gears yet, but i will if i have too.

the lockright for the 10bolt is out of production right now. demand is pretty high for these units since they are so hard to find. contact matt at www.independent4x.com he may be able to help

IIRC, your truck has the 10-bolt rear axle. If that's the case, then there is no mini-spool available for it................ and the lok-right (which is the only locker made for it) has been discontinued. Point being that a locker for your particular axle is going to be harder to come by than most. Your best bet would be to find someone that has swapped out the lok-right in the front of their Isuzu for an ARB......... but that may take awhile. If this is something you want right away, you may have to just spring the $300....................... or weld it up, since that will give you the same effect as the mini-spool you mentioned for very little cost. Best of luck!

:minor thread hijack: I am asuming the rear axle in my 94 Amigo is the 12 bolt. any leads on a place to get a cheap "lunchbox" locker

Indyguy · 01-13-2004, 10:41 AM

Yep, you have the almighty 12 bolt. Unfortunately no cheap lockers yet, only option is the ARB. The company that makes Aussie Lockers said they have considered looking into a locker for the Isuzu axles this spring................. but who knows how long it would take to get them into production if they even decided to make them at all. Beyond that, just break out your welder

well since the only option may be to weld, I would like to get another 3rd member so i don't trash this one. Does anyone have one lying around. i really don't care what gear ratio be cause it's just 2wd. but would perfer 4.10's or greater if available because i'm running larger tires. way larger. I guess it's the 10 bolt from what I hear. thanks to all the Isuzu fans.

I don't have one "laying around" per say. But I do have a wrecked '93 Amigo 2wd sitting in my parents' barn with a rear 10-bolt, 4.56 gears IIRC, condition unknown so it would be sold "as is". It will be a few weeks, but if you are interested I can make the treck up there and pull it. Shipping the entire 3rd-member is going to be one heavy girl though, so it may be expensive. Just let me know

If I remember right, Matt at Indy4X has some 3rd members in his "garage sale" section. Good Luck!

Hey Indyguy,
IIRC Amigos never came with a 10-bolt (even 2WD once). All of them had 12-bolts in the rear (especialy in '93).

Just my $.02

90amigo,
i am interested in buying that 3rd. i'm in 81301. would it be too much trouble for you to get me a shipping quote, or give me the deminsions so i could get a quote from ups or fed-ex. you said it weighs about 60 lbs. all i'm going to do is weld up the gears in this thing and slap it in. nice amigo by the way.

Lil Uzi · 01-15-2004, 09:11 PM

$300 aint bad for a near unobtainable part. I paid $229 for Toy Lock rite. I'd say go for the Lock Rite. The ARB for the 12-bolt is at least 3x that with the compressor, never mind the install cost.
