M916 6X6 Lockers

[290smallcam]

Sorry if this is posted in the wrong forum but didnt find a place for the M916. Anyways i have a question about the lockers. So some of the M916's cam with a no spin locker in the rear or rears. Is there a locker only in one rear axle or both rears? is the locker the same as in the 5 ton trucks, meaning interchangeable? And can a locker be installed in front steer axle too? Thanks to who has any input on this and any information.

m916s come from the factory with lockers in both rears. No locker in the front.

5 tons have rockwell top loaders, which are completely different than the rockwell rears on the m916. I think they are the SUHD or SSUH rear ends on the m916.

The Freightliner M916A1 and M916A2 had a locker in the frontmost rear axle only. I don't know about the A3 as I have never had one.

5 ton axles are quarter the size of 916 SUHD axles.

You can install one in the front but it won't steer and will always be active spinning without desplined hubs.
