Default Aussie Locker Q&A

Hi Folks,

A short introduction, I'm Cora the president of Torq-Masters Industries, the manufacturer of Aussie Locker, and I'm here to help with Aussie Locker and general auto-locker questions.

As a new vendor on the forum we're excited to offer support and advice!

There are guys who like to use lunchbox lockers in their front axles.

Some use the factory vacuum operated right side axle disconnect and some use cable operated ones.

So, the diff is being driven by the left wheel and not the right. I know spider gears can tolerate this, but how well do the Aussie units handle this?
Historically we never experienced problems with vacuum disconnect installation with the exception that older vehicles sometimes would fail to disconnect leaving the locker engaged. Replacing the vacuum disconnect with a manually activated system is pretty popular with vehicle owners but not required for our locker installations. These axles also have cir-clip on the axle shaft that is removed and not reused.

Hi AbodyJoe

Unfortunately we can't sell below list price, as this would be underselling our dealer network. But, we do work with clubs on group buys, shoot me a PM or email if you want to set one up!

Ya, it all depends where you look, but our dealers are not allowed to sell below our website list price. We try to have the most straight forward prices on our website www.TorqMasters.com

At $249, it's hard to argue price.....
