    Aussie Locker

    Well, I decided that I wasn't going on a trip over spring break and I wanted to install an Aussie Locker in the front of my Jeep. Well, I decided that I wanted to buy one, so today I did. Thats all just thought I would share

    locker means that I am going to CRAWL more, less throttle. Anyways, for $200, i don't consider it a polished turd. Anyways, I am going to install it over the break in Dallas

    I don't know why everyone is soo afraid of lockers, I have wheeled with them in both axles for years and my front is a lunchbox that used to be in my rear and look at Conlee, locked up both ends with a 30 in the front and 35" tires and I think the only casualty was 1 front u-joint that again he blew where we knew we shouldnt have been.....lock it up and run circles around everyone..

    Because once your locked front and rear you no longer have an excuse to not try some insane line...except for ball size

    Yea here's the guy with the mighty 8" toy axle and a guy that tries to think he wheels a suburban talkin **** about a good jeep axle. The TJ axle has solid shafts and 297 u-joints. That's stronger than a toyoty axle and probably stronger per weight than 30 spline stubs in an 8000lb thing. Just look at how hard people in this club wheel them, with very little breaking.

    Just lock up that d44 and you'll be able to put that jeep in places you shouldn't.

    I haven't had any real problems with my D30 and a Lock-Right other than breaking a u-joint turning too sharp into the driveway with only the front driveshaft installed. It's worked flawlessly off-road and helped a lot in Katemcy. Keep a set of spare shafts in the back just in case, but that's something everybody should do anyway. For $200, it wasn't a waste of money or an expensive bottle of polish in any way at all.

    In case their instructions aren't too clear, here's the write-up I did when I installed mine.

    you were just itching to use that polished turd pic. The corn is a nice touch. I just don't see the difference in a giant douche or a turd sandwich...
    Boats and hoes

    Stumble in to the liquor store
    With a dollar-fifty for a bottle of wine,
    I know just what I'm lookin for
    Thunderbird will do just fine.
