All internals are the same out of the factory yota lockers, i rebuilt mine in my old lj71 with the guts out of a new 70series locker. Easy to pull apart.

The electric actuator is $1250 new :shock:
Put a pull cable like the 60 series.

Screw the electric motors mate. I have problems with them 80% of the time I use them and am currently coming up with a manufacturable pneumatic solutions (incl the 80 series t-case). They've pissed me off for far too long :evil:
