800.00 EUR = 1,353.56 AUD


That's a comparable price to Airlockers !!
How much do ya reckon it would cost to import them......and would the company do a cheaper price for a bulk order ???

as i read now "Differential autolock 80% TTS " means LSD.
i'm not sure it worse the price...

It's certainly worth looking into. Can you try to establish exactly what sort of diff it is?

Hi,
I would like to know a little bit more about your Differential Locker for a Diahatsu Feroza (f300).
As understanding, its not a 100% differential locker as the Detroit Locker / LockRite / Detroit EZlocker. Does it replace only the inner part of the Differential (spider gears) or it replace the whole case ?
Does it working on a friction basis or on a planetary gear basis ?
Does it match the factory gear ratio only ?

Thanks in Advance for your Information.
Ofer

I somehow doubt that a front locker can be made for the Feroza. I just seems to small to fit anything in the carrier. :?

I reckon squeeze more info from these guys about the this "rear difflock".

Just curious if they may also make an LSD for the front. Would work sweet combined with the Haultech traction control ;)

They're no longer made, and only suited Aussie Rockys.... But try getting them to order one and see what they say.

just phoned this morning and yes they do 1 for the aussie rocky front and back
but it is not an air locker only fulltime lock diff (like the lokka lock-rite)
sorry to jump in but i will look at getting 1 as any diff lock is better than none

Unless some store here in Oz has one in stock, then the Detriots are no longer available. Trac Tech, the company that makes them in the US discontinued production a few years ago, and has now delisted them from their website product listing.
What a shame :cry: :cry: :cry: for some, but :D :D :D :D for others.

Just got an email from Opposite lock here in Adelaide.
they have quoted me $1425.00

They are 99% sure that it will fit my 95 SXII but wanted the diff id code that is stamped on the Diff.

I have hit so much crap with my diff that i probably havent got a code left on it!!

Does anyone know the code for a F300 rear diff?? Murcod??

Jarrad have you tried looking in the service manual for the code?

BTW apparently the Feroza diff is a totally different item from the Rocky diff - so if they're thinking it is the same thing.......

A few people (including myself) have Emailed Track Tech USA directly and the answer has been "no longer made and never fitted a Feroza anyway."

Ok, shoot me down in flames if need be, but I say, dont get your hopes up. I have Detriots fitted front and back to my F75 Aussie Rocky. The pic showing on the Opposite Lock site in the link is indeed a Detriot. Trac Tech, a USA company, for some reason, made them for F series Rockys, but surprisingly, didnt make them for Yankee Rockys (Ferozas). The diffs are not compatable between the Rocky and the Feroza.
Good Luck, and if you find one for a Feroza, you will be the first.

Mate, im not going to shoot you down of flame ya!
I am just trying get the info for others.... i am going to weld my front diff up! I already have an LSD in the rear and it works fine!
