Default New Powertrax Locker?

Am I reading the Powertrax web site right? Are they coming out with a locker for the Chrysler 8.25 limited slip differential? Part number 92-0382-2925.
This would be the first locker made for the 8.25 limited slip differential case wouldn't it?

Hey VTJeep thanks for posting but those lockers are for the 8.25 OPEN differential.
The Lock-Right locker is correct and has the same part number as the Powertrax locker. They must both be made by Richmond.

Hey 93XJLI, I think it is a rare bird. My Cherokee is a 2000, two door, five speed manual with the up country package. It took months to find one. Here are before and after pics.

Not anymore.
Midwest Truck/Motive Gear bought Richmond Gear months ago and promptly announced the end of the Powertrax NoSlip Locker. This is why I pulled them from my site.

The Lock-Rights are still available and the new 8.25 29 spline versions are soon to be available.

I called them and they said they are making "improvements" on it. They assured me i would be able to get parts for my d30 no slip.

Thanks for the info.
Is it right that there are two lockers for the 8.25, one for the open carrier and one for the limited slip carrier?
If the Lock-Right locker 92-0382-2925 is for the 8.25 Trac-Loc differential carrier, do you have any idea of availability date?

I heard about Motive wanting to buy them but didn't know it was finalized. Oh well. BTW good pricing on those units!

I switched from Richmond to Motive quite some time ago they have good gears and hold up to HP anyway.
