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.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."
Stropp, . did this happen or did it fall over?
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...Quote:

Yeah I saw that before but my heart is set on an e-locker for a few reasons.
Yes I tried but ended up getting an air locker as I could not justify the price difference.
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.Quote:

That is a good price. Will you get them to fit it as well or will you do that?
I will fit the compressor and get them to install the locker

I think you know the right thing to do in this situation Christopher!Quote:

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
Oh wow nice one winnie!! . . . Yep no doubt you'll be very happy. High mount & locker things are starting to get serious. . .Quote:

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??Quote:

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........Quote:

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.
No Clunk. 2k for elocker and installQuote:
