How many need a Detroit locker for LMTV ?

[steve6x6x6]

The wheels have start to turn for a soft Detriot Locker to be made for the LMTV and FMTV for the Meritor RF12 axles. How many out there have looked or thought of one?

What would the price point be? Air actuated?

I'd be interested if priced competitively and saves some wear and fuel!

 

[MidnightDuramax]

Same as Augdog.

This is a Detroit Locker, no air locker.

Meritor documentation states a limited slip diff is available for this axle.

Show me the part number.

I didn't look for a part number just saw it described here.

That limited slip is the Detroit Locker part number 225-S-92 obsoleted in 2006.

Yep I looked for that... couldn't find one anywhere...

So stock out of the box the LMTVs come with one leg axles?

I had the only (that i know of) rear locker in on of my LMTVs. It was a factory Meritor unit and i had the opportunity to run it side by side with an exact same truck without a rear locker. The difference was impressive. Most notable when going through a deep ditch at a 45deg angle where one front and the opposite rear tire lost contact. Locked truck would pull through.

i am definitely in for some more. The ONLY reason I sold the first one was because the buyer needed it more than I did ($) and i sold it with the truck.

Yes, all FMTVs have open differentials as stock.

Hey Steve. Spoke to you today. Yes, I'll be definitely interested for a set up for my 1083.

Thank You.

Did you check and see if any of the caiman axles have lockers? I know they have the high speed gearing for the ltmv from those axles.

Bryce started a thread on the sale of these DT. lockers for the meritor RF-12 axles. I like to keep my inventory for my axle builds.

 

[rocket990]

I would like one.
