It sure looks a lot like ox. Same mechanism. Ox does make an air actuator for their lockers now, but the exterior looks nothing like the usual ox covers. I've been looking at a lot of D30 lockers lately, and that isn't like any that I've seen. If I had to guess, I'd say OX internals that someone maybe fabbed up an air system for?

Was about to say the same thing. I only did a quick search, but it looks like teraflex still offers parts and support for the locker even though they don't sell them anymore

I couldn't find a reference to current support anymore, I will call teraflex tomorrow and see.

A gear set for a Dana 30 is about $160 for a good set if I'm not mistaken in 4.88

The info I read was from 2014 so quite possible it could be outdated. Otherwise seems like a deal to me

Bottom line: Why invest in something no longer made, or with limited support?

Trust your gut, walk.

I couldn't agree more....by the time you get it, het the lines, compressor. Etc....why not just get an ected or arb and call,it good.

I have a tru trac in the front of one of my jeeps that I was thinking if it were an "arb" for $400 game on...
