Detroit lockers

[Fakey]

Anyone know of an agent for eaton Detroit diff lockers in Nz?
I can get them here in oz quite easily so surely someone knows where I can get one for a cruiser diff in Nz??

Basically the same as a Lock-Rite aren't they?

I have one for a Cruiser 9" if you are looking?

Nah not exactly.. the detroit is a full carrier replacement rather than a insert like the lock rite

theres also the yukon lockers too but i think the dtroit would be better for big tyres

Dude, if you're earning Aussie dollars now why not set yourself up with ARB lockers. Better than all the other options mentioned.

PS. Seen anyone selling Super Swampers over there?

Haha want arb in the front but id rather have the detroit in the rear then atleast if the air system fails the detroit will still work

How bout 42" Iroks theres a guy here selling 5 new tyres for $2200, very tempted to buy them myself

I've got a factory cable locker in the front and lockrite in the rear, Great minds think alike

That's an awesome price - buy them, you know you want to

I'm going to stick to 39.5" for now (already have guard rub issues on full flex). Keeping my eye out for 2 new TSLs for the front and 1 x Bogger for the rear. No rush current rubber is fine - just want new full tread someday

No cant really justify building a new truck to fit 42"s even though i want to..

Anyway.. Anyone out there know of a detroit locker supplier?

Doesn't look like anyone imports them to NZ

Why not just import from the states.
Ive used this place before ...awesome service.

the Yukon grizzy is the Detroit made better.

the Detroit patent has expired so Yukon copied it and made it better. larger locking pins and beefier housing etc.

I run a grizzy in the rear of my surf and love it . much better mannered than the lockright I had previously .

Yeah cant find any nz suppliers, or any info on the grizzly locker for the 9.5" cruiser diffs only the 8" ones
Ive found a few suppliers in the US that sell the detroits an a set of 4.88 gears for less than I can buy the locker here I just have to look into freight to see if its worth it

Youd be best to order them seperately so you can avoid paying GST if possible.
