I've been checking Aussie's website for about a month now, and they still don't have the locker for Chrysler 8.25's in stock. I've even emailed them 3 times with no reply.

Has anyone been able to purchase a 8.25 locker from them lately?

 

According to jeeperzcreeperz.com it is expected to be back in stock Jan 24th. So I would say around then.

There's a thread over on Pirate4x4, but I gave up after MONTHS and just ordered a PowerTraxx unit from a place called My4by.com I told them my situation and that i'd pay a little more the Powertraxx unit if they could get close to price matching the shipped Aussie price.

The Aussie was gonna run me 292 shipped(Ford 8.8). They sold me the Powertraxx for 305 shipped.

 

we have not been able to get any aussie's either. so ive been using alot of powertrax and lockrights for people in that price range instead

 

After wheeling with an Aussie and now with the Powertraxx.....I can't tell a difference. Same noise level, same engagement same awesome traction.

 

not really any difference in the way these style lockers work

 

What I meant was that you always hear the internet stories of OMFG XXXXXX is so much louder than YYYYYYYY .

 

Alright, I'll hit up my4by and ask about the powertraxx. Thanks for the info.

 

Well, powertraxx only makes lock rights for the 27 spline. I've got a 29. I guess I'll just have to wait for the Aussie.

 

not true, i just installed a 29 spline powertrax locker earlier this week

 

Did you install a no slip? Or the lock right?

I can find the powertraxx no slip, but no lock right.

 

ah sorry, i didnt read the lock right part. yea, it was a no slip

 

Yeah, The no slip is a good unit. Just more than I wanna spend. Seems like locker support of the 29 spline is kind of sparse.

 

LOL I have an aussie in my front (D30) and I dont hear anything when engaged, steering just gets tighter which lets me know its working....lol

 

As jmm stated the 8.25 aussies are in production and will be available the end of Jan 2011 apparently they under estimated the popularity of the 8.25 and ran out. lance, they switched to G-mail and lost alot of e-mails at first. Try them now.
