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

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 install
No swivel hub rebuild.

Guessing they were genuine bearings?

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?
