Hi Folks,
This is Cora from Aussie Locker.
The 2012 and newer Automatic transmission JK's can't run our Rear Locker XD-14480, but they can run a front JK Dana 30 locker XD-13227.
Manual transmissions can run both front and rear Aussie Lockers, for any year.
Our lockers are 100% made in the U.S.A. with the best steel for the job, hardened 9310 USA made Alloy steel. We have the best warranty in the auto locker market.
If you would like, send me a PM, and I can introduce you to some of our JK customers if you would like to hear their personal reviews.
Thanks!!

That Trac - Loc isn't even close to being a locker. There are some clutch disc's along side the carrier that engage when a wheel slips. When a wheel slips too quickly it will spin free. My friends Jeep has one and surprisingly it's not too bad if you give it some help with the brake pedal. The Tru - Trac would work well in the back also. You can't even tell there is a limited slip in the back so I guess the TC doesn't mind it.

This was on the Yukon Gear site:
"In 2012 and newer jeep JK's with automatic transmissions any mechanical locker will cause the vehicle to go into limp mode as soon as you turn your 1st turn. This is due to the vehicle computer using the wheel speed sensors for traction control. we spoke to AEV last week and there is no programmer available to override this issue. you can however install our zip locker and use it in 4wd only. this works because when the vehicle is in 4wd the computer does not use the wheel speed sensors for traction control. From what we have gathered its only models with automatic transmissions. unfortunately there is no info available from the manufacture on these issues."

You mentioned "Our zip locker". Do you sell these?

Thanks but my issue is not been g able to have a rear Aussie locker. I have already installed the front model you listed. Just trying to figure out what to put in the rear Dana 44. Any information on that would be very helpful.
