Locker for my 99 XJ with a 8.25
Permalink  

I have been searching the net off and on for awhile trying to get an idea of the cost of a locker would be for my XJ. I find lots of choices, but every time that I go look for the price of the locker, my axle is not listed. It is either for the Dana 30, 35, or 44. I don't plan on doing a lot of hard core offroading with me XJ, just a 3in lift so I can run my 31's and do some moderate trail rides, hill climbing, and some little puddle jumping. I would like something in the realm of the Detroit EZ Locker, but again they don't list the 8.25 as an option. What is out there for this axle?

If you're looking for a "lunchbox" type locker for your 8.25 29 spline, only option is the Powertrax No Slip. All other locker, or LSD options will include new carrier$. Finding a junkyard axle with a factory Trac Loc in the correct gear is another option.

I have the No slip, and its very cool ;)

I contacted the product development group with Aussie lockers and they are telling me that they are currently testing their new locker for the 8.25, but they didn't say which spline they where doing. They told me it should be out for sale come late spring/summer time. Good news there.

If Aussie has one coming out I'd hold off untill than. The only one I know of as 98XJ stated is the Lock-Rite for the 8.25.

I read that about aussie, hope its true.
Just to be clear the Lock Rite is for the 27 spline, and Powertrax for the 29. I understand the Noslip to be a stronger refined version of the Lock Rite.
