Hello All...

Why Lokka is so expensive ???....it costs AUS$745 for my TFS/Rodeo.
Recently I bought a Powertrax Lock Right for a Wrangler TJ. It costs US$251....great price.

cheers

Hi Dani,

Firstly I'd say because the sheer volume of TJ Wrangler lockers that would be manufactured would bring the price right down. GMH/Isuzu lockers would not be a volume seller and unfortunately we pay for it...

Secondly in Australia its still cheap compared to the ARB locker which is upwards of $1500. Plus depending on where the Lokka is manufactured, manufacturing costs would be more...

Cheers,

Noel

you have to also think about the dollar conversion........ a jeep lokka here is $645 AUS... the Rodeo Lokka is $745 AUS......... as Noel said..... last quote i got for an ARB air locker was $1,800 installed
