After all the noise and racket and sticking brakes on the rear end of my 60 I have it back together. Locker? FINE. Brakes? Fixed for now. Rear wheel bearing? Ahhh, that was the culprit. It was a mess, but didnt run dry. I dont know what happened to it. So I replaced it with another Koyo, new seal, put everything back together and took it for a test drive.

No clunking or noise from the locker, but I sure can feel that thing back there. It runs so much better with the 4.56s, the 60 sounds like my old FJ40 now. :D

So MAYBE this weekend I will get a shake down run out of it.....

I can say one thing though, I like the design of the Lockright and other similar lockers when it comes to taking it apart and putting it back together. EASY!
 
Glad you got it fixed! Wierd on the rear bearing...I've heard these rarely wear out. I replaced mine before I found this out though. What size tires are you running with 4.56's?

33s for now, hopefully a true 34 or a 35X12.50 in the future.
