Default Aussie Locker Back Order...Now what???

So it looks like 3 weeks or so to get an Aussie locker for my d30. I blew up my spiders, so no wheeling right now. My friends are planning a trip in 2 weeks and I would really like to have my xj put back together. If you could not get an Aussie what other lunchbox locker would you choose? Spartan locker???? I run 33's?

I have heard not to go over 32" tires with them. (waranty states that too)What size tires are they running and for how long?

one rig was the RD rig for randys. hes been running 35's over a year now. the other guy has 35's also.

the 32" limit is a common rule regarding the carrier and cracking that. I worked at randys ring and pinion for a few years and that was a common rule of thumb.

Anyone have any experience with a Lock Right locker? My concern with them is I have read them being loud with abrupt engagement/disengagement. Thoughts??

Found an Aussie! Hoyt4x4 had 3 of them. Had to pay $279 shipped which is a bit higher than from Aussie themselves, but I am just glad to have one on the way.

I broke 2 lock-right's last year, one on 33's, and one on 35's. Both in the front. Don't waste your money.
