Lunchbox Lockers for Toyota Hilux LSD vs Open Housing
Posted: Fri May 06, 2011 6:21 pm
Hi everyone need your assistance.
Have anyone purchased a Lock Right/ Lokka for the Toyota Hilux LSD Housing which i believe they are 4 pinion diffs.
Recently i enquired from Locktup, Lockright does not make a lunchbox locker for the LSD housing anymore and only for 2 pinion open diffs. Anyone can clarify further if its true?
Also I was informed if Lockright made a lunchbox locker for the LSD housing, apparently it would be physically too small and strength would be an issue.
Anyway have anyone physically compared the difference between these 2 models (LSD and open diff)?
Is there any truth than the LSD version is weaker than the open diff version?
Also have anyone blown up a LSD version Lokka before?
I'm bringing this question up is because my front diff is running an LSD from the rear. The rear is running a Lockright which is using an open diff housing which was originally from the front.
I want to find if it is justifiable to order a Lokka for the LSD housing as i don't want to find out it's not as strong as the Lockright for the open diff housing.
Because back here, for the price of ordering a Lockright and a factory open diff to suit, I could purchase locally a Made in China Air Leaker for the same price. However I would still prefer an automatic locker for the sake of reliability and being automatic.
Looking forward to everyone's comments.
