Might want to double check. A bloke commented theere saying he runs them with the locker.

And if anything else, the factory lockers are more common in the states than down here.

Longfields are sold as LONG cvs with the longer splines etc.

For instance those of us running part time with AISIN hubs need to cut down longfield cvs by 8mm and re machine snap ring groove. I can assure you of this as I just fitted longfields last weekend and know many others that also had there's cut down. AVM hubs use a packer or something to compensate the extra length but they are a terrible fwh.

Just check measure your CVs and as mentioned above the U.S are virtually all constant 4x4 80 series and the factory lockers are more common over there. I would be giving bobby long a call to confirm...

I think the long spline the op speaks of is on the inner end of the axle, to suit the factory locker. The cv's aren't the issue.

80 Factory E-Locker Axles

Post by TRISHR »

Only the RHR axle has the longer spline for the E-locker locking hub, the front locker uses a std 80 front inner axle's as the locker mechanism is all in the centre. The longer sline longfields inner axles are made for custon axle widths so you can trim them up for various lenghts !

I would think Longfields would be able to give you the right info. I think the toyota Elockers are fairly common in the US FJ80s
