Nice... Summit & MaBell should give it a good workout.

Excellent! I'm looking forward to your feedback on the locker after your first winter.
And of course it will be fun seeing it in action on the 6th.

Just remember the half shafts are the weak link with a locker. I snapped another one at OFR.

A long few weekends and its done. New Moog lca's, upper ball joints on my spc arms and diff put back in with lokka installed. Found a local gear shop to install my lokka for $150 if I brought him the diff,figured that was cheap enough and had them do the install. Nothing hard about the work,just takes some muscle and hours doing everything by yourself. Oh,did a 5 tire rotation and had it aligned, long story on the Firestone idiots but I won't get into that. Tested the lokka on a local dirt road,it definitely changes the steering,its stiffer and does want to return to center in a hurry,nothing I can't get used to though. The real test is in a few weeks on a ma bell,can't wait for that.

Broke another cv last weekend, this time the outer cv joint gave up. Had it swapped out in 30 min.
Curious to see how the lokka handles off camber slippery situations.

Tom - You go though CVs like people change underwear!!! On the other hand I think you wheel more often & harder than most. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
