[Winnie]

Nooooooo Stropp don't do this to me! Two weeks ago I would have jumped on board but I have just ordered my barwork instead.

[Stropp]

Bugger, i have been thinking about it for a while and have just finally got around to asking my contact and he said get ten and we can deal.

[Chappy]

How much will they be with the 10% discount? My neighbor works for Harrop so I've been thinking about hitting him up for a front locker.

[nissannewby]

Can you pm the price mate I will be interested price dependant.

[Stropp]

Hi Guys i just need numbers at the moment, i will contact and see what the price will be with the 10%

[Winnie]

Retail supply price is about $1500-1600

[Steve4wdin]

I would be very interested price dependent of coarse. RRP looks like $ 1500.00 Are they the best? By my research, I favour them over the other types.

[nissannewby]

Retail supply price is about $1500-1600

Last time I priced these for myself I could get them for 1350 supply only but that was a while back.

Ok guys I need to know what diff sand ratios you have for pricing as apparently they are different for different diffs

[megatexture]

I'll watch this and see what the price is first but I'm certainly interested in one but I'm going to need tyres and shocks very soon also..

[MuddyTroll]

Put my name down, price dependant, and if some one can help me figure out my ratios etc.

[megatexture]

It has no mention of a 3ltr crd but I've been told I've got 4:3 and mine a auto so I presume they are the same as the 3ltr

[Family4x4]

I have 4.11 my mrs is going to kill me, lucky our kids are only small and don't need to eat every day!

[nissannewby]

[Stropp]

1500, need to know in the next two weeks, if I can't get 10 then it will be dearer, basically 1% discount for every elocker sold.

[megatexture]

Well in that case if you sell 49 of them ill be the 50th lol for the 50 % off lol

[Dales300exc]

Yeh sweet. Ill see how this engine swap goes. I was only talking about a pair of lockers yesterday so im keen. Will let you know after the weekend.

[crazyenough]

How much do you need upfront for the buy and when would the rest be required?

[Stropp]

How much do you need upfront for the buy and when would the rest be required?

i would say 363 upfront and the rest prior to sending the items t the various suppliers.

[schanmala]

Just a heads up, found this online. Not sure if the issue has been rectified:

Quote..

"I ordered the replacement carrier bearings yesterday.
Stripped it down today and what do you know, "STANDARD BEARINGS WILL NOT FIT"
The original carrier has 45mm shaft diameter and the Eaton has a 50mm.
In the instructions, it does mention that this may be the case for some earlier Toyota diffs, but nothing about Nissans.
I think I will give Mark from Harrop a call and let him know of the situation so he can change the instructions."

[Chubba]

Stropp, . did this happen or did it fall over?

[Cuppa]

Our local Opposite Lock give 10% discount on purchase & installation to local 4wd club members. A front locker is on the cards sometime in the next 12 months. If anyone can better that offer I’ll be interested.

I know it's not an e locker but still...

[Cuppa]

Yeah I saw that before but my heart is set on an e-locker for a few reasons.

[Stropp]

Yes I tried but ended up getting an air locker as I could not justify the price difference.

[Chubba]

Ok thanks Stropp, Why have you not put it in your signature? That would have been my number one on the list.

And the same for me. Would like to have one before Nov trip.

still waiting for the locker to turn up, got the compressor and airline in waiting waiting waiting.

[Winnie]

I'm going to order mine on Monday so we will see how long it takes to get here

Cool Winnie. Is that Elocker or ARB?

[Winnie]

ARB mate, going with the sale they have on now.

[Chubba]

That is a good price. Will you get them to fit it as well or will you do that?

[Winnie]

I will fit the compressor and get them to install the locker

[AB]

I will fit the compressor and get them to install the locker where are you going to get it done?

[Winnie]

where are you going to get it done?
Just at Action 4x4, the ARB dealer in Warragul.

[AB]

Just at Action 4x4, the ARB dealer in Warragul. You'll love it mate! Ready for cup weekend? ;)

[Winnie]

Nah unfortunately, have to wait another pay for the install. Hmm but then I could always borrow the money from my savings....... I think it might be a necessity?

[AB]

It's probably a safety concern too... Better do the right thing

[BigRAWesty]

It's probably a safety concern too... Better do the right thing
A concern which way?? Your car or your balls?

[threedogs]

$1500 seems over priced seeing they work the same as an air locker, and with them you need a compressor
and possibly a small tank.
Are you paying for the convienience of flicking a switch, just saying .
also only heard good things but a diff lock is a diff lock

[Rossco]

ARB mate, going with the sale they have on now.
Oh wow nice one winnie!! . . . Yep no doubt you'll be very happy. High mount & locker things are starting to get serious. . .

[Winnie]

Oh wow nice one winnie!! . . . Yep no doubt you'll be very happy. High mount & locker things are starting to get serious. . .
The next safety issue is I don't have 35s...

[AB]

The next safety issue is I don't have 35s... Don't forget the chrome grille!

I used to hit a kangaroo once a week and haven't hit one yet!

Word on the street is the reflection deters the animal, safety Winnie!

[Sir Roofy]

Don't forget the chrome grille!

Not sure of that one ? probably just no roos left after the fires down your way

[Stropp]

Not sure of that one ? probably just no roos left after the fires down your way

I think it was tongue in cheek Roofy so Winnie can get permission to buy it lol

E-locker supplied and fitted to front diff by Opp Lock here in Adelaide for $2140. That sounds ok to me. Any Thoughts?
To anyone who has fitted a locker in the front, did you bother with replacing swivel hub bearings or not because that adds a lot more to the price.

I can't see how swivel hub bearings would add that much??
Easily done in the driveway.. not a huge job at all..
If they want more than $300, do em yourself.
The bearings are about $50-80 depending on brand, a bit of grease and then just your time

Full swivel hub rebuild kit from patrolapart is over $300.... I got quoted $1000 for a company to do mine, so that included labour and parts. So me and a mate did mine and took us a whole day to strip down, clean everything, grease and rebuild........

So I'd say 2k for them to install elocker and swivel hub rebuild would be ok

[Chubba]

I see what your saying about bearings. And they want a lot more than that. They must mean redoing the whole Hub. Cv seals and all that guff.
I do not have any leaks from my hubs from anywhere,have no wobbles and the wheel bearings are only 18 months old. $425 for a bearing kit would have to include every seal and bearing in the whole hub assembly surely.

[Chubba]

No Clunk. 2k for elocker and install
No swivel hub rebuild.

Guessing they were genuine bearings?

[Chubba]

Ok. Question Is it really necessary to rebuild swivel hub when fitting a locker? Is it something most people do or the anal few? When I had my reduction gears installed I had all the bearings changed then and a lot of people said it was over kill. Is this the same?

[Rossco]

I did everything in mine when i did it but had never done the swivel hubs in the time i had it and it had done about 400 thou. I reckon if it hasn't done huge K's or has been done reasonably recently it should be fine.
