Just looks like an open carrier from that angle. Spin it around and then we can see your lockright.

I did do a little research but I do not have the factory instructions. And on top of that not completely sure what all comes with the locker it may be the whole carrier with the lock right in it not sure. But I do know its got a 3.07 ring gear on it

Out of curiosity, you aren't planning on just slapping that carrier in your axle are you?

Yup that's a lockright. Make sure you replace the springs when you put it in yours since they wear out and are cheap. They are very easy to install. If you have 3.55s or lower, numerically higher, you'll have to remove your ring gear to get the center pin out. You can use your carrier so you don't have to worry about setting up backlash. Get on richmonds website and they'll send you installation instructions.

So it is a complete carrier with the locker in it then. I just wanna put the locker in my carrier instead of going thru the set up process to put it in mine. So how the hell do I get it out of its carrier lol

Good idea and will this locker hurt the 4.88s Im putting in later this year?

After looking at that the springs don't look like a lockright. But I haven't seen the smaller versions like one for a D30 maybe they are different.

Looks like a Lock Right with the double springs.

OP, you need to knock out the roll pin holding in the cross pin. I took an old screw driver and ground it into a driver. I'd recommend buying a new hardened cross pin and springs before installing it. After you get the cross pin out, the springs will generally pop all over. There are 8 springs in total and 4 pins.

Download a set of directions or follow one of the many write ups online. You can use a pry bar to pop the carrier out of your axle. Be sure to keep track of which way and where your bearing caps go. There's a good wealth of info out there. If you have any specific questions, post up.
