Getting a Lockrite Installed

Post by reprise »

Hey all, just about to order f&r lockrites. I've rung a few places to do the install but so far, noone i've spoken to does them (most only doing ARB airlockers) and some have even said they want do them as they cause "major" axel damage and are problematic.

Despite this, I still want them as everyone here seems to think they are good. My question is, Does anyone where I can get them installed in the Sydney area. ( preferably north western area) or is there anyone who has installed them themselves and can do it for me for $$$.

I'll order them from the states this week so i am not expecting them to arrive all that soon.

Cheers

Not very,

I have a friend who is basically a mechanic however has never worked on 4wd or done any Diff work.

With instructions im assuming it would be pretty simple to someone with the basic ability yea?

How long would it take to install on one diff?
