What rear axle do you have? Also are you sure of the brand of locker it has?

Are you sure it's not working properly (assuming it's an auto locker)? When I had a Lock-Rite in my TJ, it felt like it wasn't working properly. Directions said to jack up the axle, get the wheels off the ground & hold 1 tire and the other should spin... Can't remember, but there's a way to check.

Basically, mine was working properly, I just wasn't used to it, actually hated it!

C. Not enough information.

We need to know what you have. A "Trulock" is an air locker. Are you sure that's what you have? Do you have a Dana44 rear? I don't think Trulocks were ever made for an 8.25 or D35. I could be wrong.

Take a picture of your rear axle and post it here.
