    I really like the idea of the e-locker. Last time i was looking at them (a while ago), they were about $200-$400 more expensive per end than the arb air lockers , not including the price of the air compressor.
    What sort of prices are they now? Do you have both ends done?
    Interested in any info about them

    I also like the idea of an e locker, but the price of an auto is hard to beat for its effectivess.

    The first video is a small example. at about 25 seconds I drive my drivers rear up a rock the lsd opend up and the front swings around
    The second it a big exageration BUT... you have to take into account that the wheel was hitting on the tray and I run maxxis trepadores and they are directional with little to no left/right traction

    The thing is , without some sort of locked front diff, i very much doubt you would have got out of that hole at all, so if you did have the ability to turn the lokker OFF in that situation, i bet you would have still left it engaged ?

    So in other words , no matter what type of diff lock you had, the front end skid steer would still have occoured in that situation ?



    Those with "switchable" lockers please feel free to confirm or dismiss this theory
