a brisbane company had made an autolocker for the old leafy zook ( or rear of coiler ) this locker is basicly a copy of a lockright. They made a limited number and called them a ROCLOK. i beleive i picked up the last one!!
great off road, chirps around corners and occasionly occurs pretty savage backlash just to let you know it luvs ya.

it's actually spelt ROCLOC, yeah the fella doesn't make them anymore. He sold about 220 of them and had 3 returned busted because people were pushing them a bit too far with over over size tyres and doing things like jumps etc. They were designed to last 3 years good hard driving but should be good for 15. He found the product took up too much of his time and effort for the small amount of money that he made. It's a shame because they're pretty good. If you shim them up correctly the backlash shouldn't be too bad.
stu: were did you get yours from? suzisport?

I had a lincoln in the back of mine, then a lockright, and now a lincoln again....i prefer the way the weld up handles - much more predictable and at least u know it is gonna work! Having said that too, i have a powetrax lockright in the front and i love it!

What do you wanna know about them?? i tested the prototype (and blew it into a thousand bits doing it!!!
![Twisted Evil :twisted:](./images/smilies/icon_twisted.gif)
)
The other reason why Grahame Nissan (the man behind them) isn't doing them anymore is cos of liability insurance cost too much and also alot of them where breaking so warranty claims were getting annoying
personally i bit the bullet and went out a ARB Air Locker for mine and i've never looked back, my car behiaves normal again on the road
also because i was running abit of power thru them from my Worked 1600 i had, I broke 3 gearboxes due to the back lash from the old Roclock's, now i haven't broken a single one yet with the Air Locker....
But that's just my opnion and they were a good locker for the money they were going for though
