ARB would be my first choice, they are about 1000 for the rockwell's though, 3 grand for lockers is a bit crazy though, (another reason to bob it :P) not sure if they make E lockers for these though. could be another option but I have issues with wiring as it is...

Yea there pricey. i need to win some money somehow hahahah. i was thinking of just starting with locking up the middle tandem. i so want a 4 door bobbed deuce with a hmmwv slant back on it. e lockers? dont know much about those

[bldeagle10]

electric lockers, I've never seen a 4 door with the hmmwv fast back, i'll have to do a little google magic on that one...

Eaton (owner of Detroit Locker) manufactures most of the E-lockers available. an E-locker functions mechanically smilier to an air locker. there is a plate that slides over on the cogs that lock the drive unit together. the main difference is that on an E-locker is actuated by an electromagnet vs an air diaphragm.

BldEagle, search for M-1151, those are the base model of the turtlebacks.

hrm may have to check out e lockers.

also about the 4 door hmmwv back deuce. dont think its been done before with a hmmwv slant back. i just want to take the idea of a slant back and put it on one....mmmmm

Scott did the 395s help or hurt mpg? And are you taking into account the odometer is off?

Littlered you bid on the GSA trucks? which one did you get? and i can help if its local if you need.

Yes I bought one of the GSA trucks.
I went to eastern WA to view it the other day but my trip got delayed because of construction slowdowns and I had to take a detour because of a brush fire. When I finally made it out there it was just starting to get dark out so my pictures did not turn out so good. I will try on post one later though.

The one I got was used by a local fire dept as a water tender and they are taking the tank off sometime this week. When they are done I can come over and pick it up.

If you consider Granite Falls, WA local (I know it is a bit of drive from Lakewood) than I will let you know if I need any help, and thanks for the offer.
