Aussie Locker installed

[Dan2722]

I've had this sitting on my shelf since August and finally decided to install it. I don't have anything to add to the existing install threads in tech since they cover everything you need. It was a very straightforward install and I ran into no issues except taking 5 hours instead of the 3 it should take according to the manual.

After driving it for a little over a week I have become used to the clicking and do not notice it except in tight turns.

Cool Dan! Now you are ready for John Bull.

I will be curious to hear your review after some snow driving. Going up to Big Bear & Mammoth would be the one thing making me want to go with an ARB instead of this Aussie

Yeah, can't wait to hit the trails and try this out.

From the reviews I have read several members have the Aussie that live in snow and ice and have no issues. Here is a good thread.

I looked at the ARB but price was the deciding factor and the Aussie has received nothing but praise from its users.

I had a 'lunch box' type locker in my Jeep XJ and it was great.. Wasn't bad or even noticeable in the snow. And it greatly enhanced offroadability on slick/loose stuff.

Cool, guess I don't need to let the two or three trips a year affect my locker decision. Now it's just my wallet affecting my locker.
