GX470 LOCKERS!! (1 Viewer)

[GXO]

VENDOR ALERT: Not a sales pitch, just an FYI.
We have imported hundreds of Harrop Eaton ELockers in the last several years. Not cheap, but easy to install (given decent shop skills and tools) with excellent results. No disrespect to the air lockers, both are fine units, just different.

Awesome timing Just make sure you get the right front on the GX470 as we have the 3.73 carrier (easier to call out awesome vendors to confirm correct parts).

Thanks. Yep, the front has two p/n listed based upon ratio. It gets a little complicated when regearing with non-OEM spec gears may require use of the "other" p/n due to thickness of housing. Here is a comparison of the two models. With a lower gear, the ring gear gets thicker....

Correction on your web page for the A9334 Rear locker. You call out 03-09 GX460 but it should be GX470

No problem, I own a GX and I still question myself sometimes if its 470 or 460.

There is also a section where it said 2010-2016 GX470

And Dan....Are you saying the the factory R&P is weak? Or the factory FJ set up....or both until you step up to 8.2?

Both (as they are the same from GX 2003-09 and FJ from 07-09). Well known. I broke my R&P in a gravel road .

There are about 8 I know of that have already broken their rear R&P in GXes, and a lot more in FJs.

So what would be better

Upgraded Stock LSD non-factory Upgrade R+P as well.

or

New 150 version stock LSD.

I believe the 150 stock and the 120 upgraded R&P are about the same (given the same ratio). This is not a scientific analysis

The lower gear ratios are BEEFY. I mean really beefy. Check the difference:

Stock (with some teeth missing, note the backing plate and overall thickness of the ring gear):

After several years....the 150 8.2 is for sure way stronger than the 120 8" rear. I have seen no amount of build in an 8" that will hold off failure in hard wheeling.
