[furnace]

Quick queston..can a Lockrite or Lokka diff lock be fitted into 44 Dana diff that has LSD [ after LSD has been removed ] or can they only be fitted to open diff's ..Cheers Furnace

I think so to but just not quite to sure as i have seen some where that they could not be fitted to another 4x4 that had a LSD [ not sure what it was now ] he had to buy a open diff, I think i read it in Aussie 4wd very recently

An air locker comes with it's own "carrier" a "lock right" does not, you fit it to your existing carrier. I am un-sure if you can fit a lock right type to a LSD carrier, but if you find you cannot, I have a D44 open carrier if you need it.
You also may not be aware, that when you do replace the carrier, you will need to "re-shim" for the correct backlash.
