Is this a manual diff lock ?

Post by Tim D »

I recently wrecked a landie with this attached to it, there is a cable that comes out the bottom, that might be an activation sencor maybe ?

thanks

It looks to be. Just undo the bolt on the end of the big hex on the end of the drivers side drive flange, rotate the axle and see if it locks up. If it is a manual diff lock, you have to remove the spindle/stub axle to remove the axle.

It is and they were made by Macnamara. It should have a heavy duty 4 pin center also and fine spline axles. They are a great upgrade on a series vehicle, even if never used as a diff lock...

there will be freight on top of that depending on the buyers location. ;)

No the axles are not long enough, and the drivers side axle is needed to lock the diff.

I am after one of those as well although i need it for a salisbury but i might consider it also. The problem is i am half way around the globe! Anybody know of a salisbury version laying around??

shipping costs will probably make it prohibitive!

i think diff locks for salisbury's are cheap enough to buy new, cause its a dana diff.

i just sold my leafer salisbury to my brother, i 'll ask him if he wants to sell it , i also work with a guy who exports parts to the french islands and surrounds.
