E locker vs air locker

[gqmoder]

yeah pretty sure i got ripped. wish i had of told him to jam the bearings now im kicking myself big time .... not to worry canberra is a very small place and ALL my mates either own modified 4wds or drags cars or burn out cars or do engine conversions and do up cars like me. word soon gets around who is a rip off in town!!

i installed my last lockers myself with out any instructions what so ever hey and you should see the instruction book that comes with these.
its like 25 pages with very detailed instructions and pictures and all im not antisipating this being a hard job.
wiring is easy as comes with full harness already made up ... i just fully wired a 6.2 ltr commodore motor from scratch to go in my patrol so that is going to be dead easy.

I have auto locker. Just lock the hubs and drive

I did my front myself and it was pretty straight forward, borrowed a dial gauge and as I had never played with a diff before I found that measuring the backlash and then setting the backlash with the new locker installed was the most time consuming. Apart from that it is so simple to install. Pretty much just as gqmoder has listed.

I'm running elocker front with the standard LSD rear and the elocker works as good as any other locker I have had. Like the rest of the crew there is no air leaks. I have no issues with the elocker even after completing Cape York in Jul this year.

I have an Elokka in the front and got it cheaper then an air lokker 2 years ago, they all do the same thing in the end just using different mediums to engage, my advice do as I did and play all suppliers against each other to get the best price for the type of locker YOU want.

thank you all about the info! just learned a lot about the e locker and air locker. So does anyone know what type of the locker it is using on the latest Y61 2014?
