My attempt at installing a LOKKA brand Auto locker

Well I got my hands on my LoKKa today and i am soooo excited.......now anyway. I will attempt the install this weekend, gotta work half day Saturday and a bloody outlaws 70th i MUST attend (apparently) for lunch Sunday so may not get finished. But i will put up photos, foters, and piccies of the process. Heres the first 1 i had to open the box and play with it ahahhahahahahaa.

Good luck boss!!!

this will be very interesting

Sweeeet ! :coffeetime:

Assume its for the front diff not rear ?




As this is a mod that is on my future to do list, i shall be watching this thread with intrest.


Be really great, if you have time, to take pics from start to finish, and list tools you need/used ?

I will do just that mate, try and post something useful on the forum rather than my usual dribble hahahahahaha. I already have the axles out as have just done wheel bearings seals and swivel hub bearings and seals. Tonys put a brilliant post up re this part so I'll start from removing front prop shaft and diff centre and take it from there. And yup its the front diff

Hahaha..cheers for the new toy mate.

I'll follow this thread to the finish..

Cool, perhaps you could you put a link to Tonys info, im sure it will be usefull for others who discover this thread, and are wanting to do the job starting from scratch ?



Or......Maybe Tony just needs to fit one in my rig, only so i can take detailed pics from the start, all the way through ;) (ha-ha)





Would also be interested if you could measure your approx turning circle when locked in 4wd with your open centre now (obviously need to be on grass, dirt or sand etc), so it can be compared after lokka install.

I also assume you have manual hubs ?, im interested to get the chance to confirm/dismiss the auto hub problems when used with lokkas (ive heard mixed reports about UN-locking issues)

watchin and a waitin mate
this is one thing i want to do
front diff only though

Goodluck, you will be amazed at the difference they make :)

I've already got the axles out so will probably be a bit hard to complete a full circle at the moment hahahaha don't reckon the trolley jack would give true representation of the radius hahaha but will measure when locked up, apparently they unlock when turning but lock again if powering or slipping/spinning
