If i don't have the limited slip D44, would my carrier work the locker? also, what type of locker did you use? Lock Right?

we put in a tj low cage for the thick gear of the jk and everything worked fine. you will probably have to change your cage too even if you don't have a limited slip but you can always try without changing it and see if it fits, it just might. the splines are different on the pinnion (24) instead of i think (26) on the tj but what were talking about has nothing to do with the pinnion

Ok, that makes more sense now. so it's the actual size of the cage that is different in the JK. so that is why i've heard that lockers that replace the cage work right?

that probably right, the thing is the suppliers can't realy help us much with this. but i imagine a detroit locker from a tj would fit but again it's to try and most people don't like maybys. but what i've done is done and if a lock rite and tj cage fit i imagine the aussi locker for tj and tj cage will do the same

Hey seniletoall, thanks for helping out our members here but in the future, it would be nice if you would just post under your original nam6869usmc username or even your alter ego jkisthebest. Regardless of what alias you decide to go by, I would appreciate it if you would refrain from undercover pimping your supporters here and take your personal jihad against us elsewhere. Thank you.

FYI aussie locker does not have a official model out for the JK but we have had customers install it with great success.

If you are looking for one we have them in stock ready to shipe 249 shipped.

Thanks
David
