lock right or ez locker - Pirate4x4.Com : 4x4 and Off-Road Forum

RockRanger · 09-27-2001, 10:23 AM

seems like most of the sammi I read about are running ez lockers. I have lock rights in my ranger and have never had a problem with them. just curious. The reason I am asking is I plan on getting a sammi in the future and trying to learn all i can so i don't make to many mistakes.

I have lockrites, but I've heard that the Ez locker and lockrites are the same. I've even heard that the parts are interchangable. If your lockrites work for ya I'd stick with em. They work in my Scout, and they do fine in the Suzuki. <IMG SRC="smilies/smile.gif" border="0">

I've also heard this. The only difference that I've heard of is that the lock-rite comes with a better warantee. I've got 'em front and rear and they work great. ~Steve

Not planning on replacing the ones in my truck. I have had no problems. I was just wondering if people had problems with eather in the sammi axles or not. or if one is better then the other in certain vecicles.

I have a complete 3rd member on its way right now with an E-Z locker in it. The only difference between the two is that the lock-right has two springs in the locker to make it work and the e-z locker has one biased spring. i have heard that the E-Z locker is better but I have no experience with them yet. I let you know. <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0">

Running lock rights front and rear.
Have had no problems.
Friend of mine with EZ's replaced the front after they started slipping real bad with lock right.
Wasn't happy with them either so went to ARB air locker in front.
Got the cash? go ARB.

Is anyone selling a spool for Sammy axles yet? That would be cool.
