I see on thier website it says that the EZ locker shouldn't be used with anything over a 32" tire.. anyone have any expirence with them. I was thinking of getting one for my 8.8 and I'm runnign 36" TSL's

I had one in the rear of a d35 running 31's. and that little thing Warped my carrier. But it was a turdy 35.

go lockright or aussie. Stay away from the ez-locker

Running a lockright in my rear 60 running 36's and no hickups at all. and thats abuse at the Hammers

I don't know about the 8.8

Im sure someone will chime in

I had an EZ locker in my TJ 44 rear for about 1 month before it blew up on 35"s and the rear was in free wheel motion. When it did work it made violent popping sounds and jerked the jeep half a lane over. Thing sucked. After reading about it in the booklet I noticed it said "not for use with larger than stock tires" I called 4 whee parts and they gave me credit no questions asked. I have had an ARB ever since.
