EZ lockers and quick locks are garbage, stay away from them, Powertrax and Aussie make the only good lunchbox lockers.

granted theres discrepancies here, i drive a f150, but still it had the 8.8 with the 4.6 in front of it all.

i ran the powertraxx front and rear until the rear one died. summary of what happen the day it gave out...

i saw a puddle, i splashed through it. pulled onto asphalt and nailed it, felt one bang and a series of clicking. all i know is when i pulled it out, the teeth would not mesh except for in one position. can u believe it? that thing broke/warped or whatever way you want to put it from that puny 4.6L!

i now run a full locker, detroit. i feel the lunchbox locker is inferior design as a whole. i atleast have my reason, i broke one!

mostly a wt issue there...


if you drive like an idiot(myself...a driving idiot) your r&p will probably fail nect and then some tube twisting.


i got sick of destroying the 8.8 and had to go bigger, sounds like you have the same problem. just dont know it yet

oh trust me i know. 4.88 gears, lightning powerplant up front, 35" tires. all around that lil 8.8... im waiting for the next "pop" so i can sell my locker to my brother, and go get a 9.75.

im just saying for a stock 4.6 powerplant, those years was what? 170hp roughly? i had 180k on it so im definately not anywhere near peak hp and it still hurt that powertraxx.
