Anyone using Chinese eBay airlockers?

[morewheeldrive]

Keep seeing china! Air lockers setups on eBay. Roughly 800 bucks for the whole kit ( front) anyone used these? The price is super tempting but the only good thing to come out of china is rice.
Anyone used these things? What y'all reckon? Should I give em a go?

I would be reluctant to use them for the sake of saving $3-400.

I broke a Chinese CV in my cruiser, it snapped like a carrot, as well as the dead CV I also had to replace about $300 worth of surounding parts and also had a partly damaged axle.
A blown locker could cost a lot in terms of replacing other damaged parts such as C&P, axles etc.

You can buy them direct from the actual company for $590 delivered.
That guy is reselling them. When you win the bid he orders it then adds $200.

They the old design locker and are only fully machined on the mating faces so they're ugly and rough where it doesn't matter.

We have used one in the past yrs.. it was junk and not square.. for a full comp truck it would have been all right but the face where the crown wheel mounts to the centre wasnt machine correctly and the crown wheel didnt run square causing the the diff to have a tight spot when assembled corretly...
Your better or buying a lockright ....
