The Aussie locker for the Chrysler 8.25″ axle is ready for the public. I installed the first one today. It fit and worked well.
The locker went in without any problems and was an easy install. The donor was a 1999 XJ Cherokee. It is equipped with a 4″ lift and 31″ tires.
There was a problem with the axle gears when we tried to install it last time. This time everything slid together without any issues. I have installed a few Aussies in my time so in about 45 minutes we had this Jeep running down the road with a locked rear.
I tested it on some of my dirt piles I have around here. The rear had much more traction with no slipping or noises. i am very happy with the Aussie and I am confident that Troy (the owner of the Jeep) will be happy as well.
