E Locker Question
« on: Feb 22, 2012, 12:16:43 PM »
So I am looking at a Toyota Elocker without the motor. I have done some searching and found some info on converting it to a cable. But my question is could I just make a lever to manually lock it when I go wheeling? Like when I lock my hubs I would just crawl under my truck and lock my rear diff? Has anyone ever done this. To me it would be less stuff to go wrong? Any pics would be great!

Go for it, once I hit the trail and turn on my rear ARB I do not turn it off until I put it on the trailer.

There is a nice cable set up on Pirate right now, can't remember the shop that is building it.
