lockers?

[discoman]

Anyone here running a true locker in the rear? How about the front? (Yes, I know, off road use only in a straight line) Did the factory offer locking diffs at any time, other than the center diff?
What about the aftermarket? Which company offers them? I would guess that ARB would have something.
No particular reason for asking, just curious.

Don't have them, but one day.

Factory has only been offered in the LR3 rear only (other than the CDL)

Detroit

detroit in the rear. Love it. Acts like an open diff except when called on.

Acually the Detroit is just a locker, and doesn't act like an open diff. Try accelerating hard through a tight turn one or two time and you will see why it is called a locker.

All that popping noises you will hear and feel are the locker doing it's job.
