Whos running a lunchbox locker?
« on: January 07, 2016, 06:20:46 PM »
I'm looking at a lunchbox locker for my front D60 build, What's everyone running?  Spartans seem to get really good reviews, but I know lockrights are popular as well.

Aussie just put one out for the Dana 60 that I hear are primo. I run a rear aussie in my 8.8, it is spent but is getting replaced. In my front dana 30 I run a lokka locker which is inexpensive and works great, I believe they have them for the Dana 60 also. www.lokka.com

I run a Aussie in my front D30 and it has been in for about 5 or more years. I have run a lock-right, and a spartan in my rear 8.8 and both failed, i run a mini spool back there now.

What failed on the lock right and spartan?  Break teeth, shear pins?

pins and springs first then the gears would not stay engaged

Aussies front and rear here... have had them since April of last year... They work pretty good and the price is right.
