You should not have any problems put this in, just read the directions. I know that might sound funny but it will save you a lot of time. Where are you located?

I used the lock-right version on my YJ front and rear. Amazing little units

Was very surprised by this locker great on the road, even better in the woods, and quite. With the 80-145w oil you don't really hear the clicking of the locker. Went back through some trails that need 4x4 but not with the locker! 2wd through the whole trail, three wheeling some of the wash outs. Highly recommending Spartan Lockers!

I only spent $1,650 on Jeep! Traded Ranger motor swap for jeep $0, bought lift and rears used for $300 sold front rear for $150. Bought new tires, headlights and shocks ford $1200. Locker bought off Craigslist for $300. robbed wheels from my old ranger, plus i still have the other 8.25 rear! My wife is a stay at home mom, and the wife is pregnant with child #2... I'M REALLY BROKE!!! Just smart with the money i do have! LOL
